Why would any couple go for the wedding shuffle? You have seen it: the bride and the groom move their feet and the swing the body aimlessly and both the couple and the guests want that sort of embarrassing routine over as soon as possible. There's only one chance to make a great impression with your wedding dance on the big day.
Grab it with both hands because it is a magical moment. Imagine the wedding gown flowing on the floor as you walk to the sound of your favourite first dance song. All eyes are on both of you wanting to see your dance as a married couple for the first time. Though only a few minutes long, you should wow the guests with your wedding dance.

My wedding was in a couple of months, but I had no idea how to dance. I contacted this Dance School, and soon Paul was teaching me how to dance. Paul is an amazing instructor! He is patient, professional, and can even show a beginner like me how to waltz, in just a few lessons!
By the end of it, I had perfected the waltz with my fiancé. We were comfortable and confident in taking to the dance floor at our wedding, and because we were given a flexible routine, we could safely continue our dance even if we stumbled.
I would instantly recommend Paul to any couple wishing to perfect their wedding

Paul is a great teacher, experienced and patient! The decision to have dance lessons for our first dance was one of the best we had for our wedding!
Paul was flexible and he managed to accommodate 2 lessons in a busy week just before flying to Greece for our wedding! He understood what we wanted and without any dancing experience, at the end we had a clear and simple foxtrot dance plan with figures as we exactly thinking!We had so much fun during the classes, we really enjoyed on or wedding day and our guests were very impressed!
Highly recommend! Have as much lessons as you can as this is a

My adorable wife and I celebrated our 20th Anniversary in London. My wife is from Vienna and she had the brilliant idea of taking a lesson to finally learn the Viennese Waltz - which we've been butchering for the last 20 years. This would be our first ever dance lesson individually or together. After much searching she found Paul and from the first email exchange we knew we had found the right teacher. When we arrived for our lesson Paul immediately made us feel welcome and comfortable, as if we'd known him all along. As he guided us through our lesson we found that not only was he a gifted dancer

Paul is a fantastic teacher - patient, adaptable and fun. He turned us from having four left feet to having the confidence to really enjoy our first dance. We always looked forward to the lessons and hope to keep dancing in the future. We would encourage you to have as many lessons as you can to become really comfortable so that you can relax and enjoy yourselves on the night. We would strongly recommend Paul to anyone!

Paul was excellent! He put us both at ease and helped us build a first dance from scratch. He choreographed it in such a way that it would work whatever might happen with our LIVE singer and band, and made the whole process really clear and encouraging... and even enjoyable! Paul was very kind and not only put us through our paces to get the best out of both of us, but also boosted my husband's confidence where needed so that he too enjoyed the process! We really enjoyed our series of lessons and loved our first dance so much that we now do it for fun around the house (and even on a deserted bridge

We were complete beginners with tight schedule and pre-wedding stress.
We were only 1 week away from doing our first wedding dance. We can't believe how in four lessons Paul immediately made us feel at ease and confident with the impressive choreography of our dance routine. We were very glad to have taken the lessons. Paul helped make our first wedding dance perfect. Our family & guests were amazed with the dance routine.
We highly recommend Paul to any couple looking to impress their guests as he is patient, inspiring, friendly and an exceptional mentor as a dance instructor. You will not be

So so so glad we chose Paul to help us create our first dance! He is a true gem! In our first lesson we talked through the song we wanted, the type of dance we wanted and that instantly made us feel at ease. It continued throughout all the lessons we had and it was such a nice escape from the stress of wedding planning! Our wedding was characterised by our first dance and I'm so glad that we took these lessons. Highly highly recommended!
