My fiance and I loved these dance lessons! We are total beginners and she made us feel comfortable. The lesson was fun and easy to understand. We are excited to come back again! I will update at the end of our lessons to let you know how our first dance went!

We loved working with Arianna! She is so kind and patient. She was flexible and adapted the dance to our skill level but also to the moves we were most interested in. We picked two different songs - one for me and my now-husband, and the other for me and my dad - and she crafted the choreography just for us. Also, the lessons are in a beautiful pilates studio on the water and there’s a lot to do nearby before/after your lesson if you want to make an afternoon of it. Ariannas prices were very fair -a great value for what you’d typically find in the area- and I can’t recommend Arianna enough.

I was really impressed with how well prepared Ariana was to teach me how to dance for my daughters upcoming wedding. She clearly took the time to really listen to the song ahead of time and had a whole routine planned for me before I arrived. Her encouragement throughout the lesson really helped me get over my nervousness. I left feeling so grateful and I really got my money's worth!

Ariana is amazing. She is sweet, patient, and attentive to her craft. She makes you feel comfortable. She is passionate in teaching others how to dance and simplifies every step of the way. She made this such a fun experience for me and my fiancé. I would love to return back to get more lessons from her because she was such a great instructor.

We loved learning our first dance with Arianna! She’s great at teaching beginners with no dance experience and her choreography is beautiful!

Arianna was absolutely incredible to work with!! She is a wonderful teacher for both experienced and new dancers! We loved learning from her and would recommend her to ANYONE who wants ballroom dancing classes. We are so excited for our first dance and Arianna made it happen.

Arianna is a true dance professional and a wonderful woman! She is incredibly supportive and lovely to learn from. We are so excited to show off our beautiful first dance to our family and friends at our wedding. They will be blow away! We are so sad our lessons are over because we looked forward to it each week. I highly recommend Arianna for anyone looking to take dance lessons either for a special event or just to have fun! We are going to miss our wedding dance lessons, but hope to learn more from her soon 💞

Arianna choreographed our first dance to "Teach Me Tonight" by She & Him, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. My partner and I are novices when it comes to dancing, but she made the learning process fun, and after a few lessons we ended up with a sweet routine that everyone at the wedding complimented us on. Arianna is a great teacher. Highly recommend!

Our first dance was a hit! Arianna impressed us with how quickly she choreographed our dance and therefore how much time we had to practice. My husband (YAY) and I really enjoyed the process of learning the dance, practicing it together, and then getting to share it with our friends and family!

I cannot say enough about Arianna and her amazing dance routine she created for my husband and I! Before meeting her, I sent her our song and when we met she had created the most elegant beautiful easy to learn routine. Our first meeting she spent an hour and a half teaching us the steps and it was so easy with her. I would recommend her to all couples who are looking for that once-in-a-lifetime experience at their wedding with their first dance! She is truly a professional and a sweetheart to work with. And text friendly which is always great. Thank you Arianna! ❤💃🏻 Mr and Mrs Hooks

Arianna is a joy to be around. She is like a little cheerleader pushing you along. My husband and I are doing this to prepare for a wedding next year and we are having a ball. So much to learn. We love her!

She made you feel extremely comfortable and confident

My husband and I hired Arianna to help us with our first dance for our wedding. Neither of us had any background experience with dancing and considered ourselves to have two left feet. Arianna was so kind and patient with us! She really took the time to get to know us and choreographed a beautiful dance to one of our favorite songs. She adjusted the choreography to fit what we were comfortable with and made changes when necessary to make the dance appear more elegant. She was also willing to meet with us either at the studio in Long Beach or where it was the most convenient for us. What stood out to us for our entire experience with her was her passion for us to be successful. Happy to say, by the time we danced for our wedding we felt incredibly confident and gave our guests a huge surprise! We recommend Arianna without any reservation!
