    We worked with Krista over the course of two months to learn our first dance for our wedding. I have often been described as having two left feet, and by the time we got to our wedding, we were comfortable with almost no nerves, and put on a memorable first dance. We even had multiple engaged couples ask where we got dance lessons. Thank you Krista for making our first dance so memorable! We miss our weekly dance lessons and will surely return to Monarch in the future.

    Tommy and Sara, It was such a joy to get to know you and help with your first dance. You two did a fantastic job, and I love the way you look at each other with so much joy! Wishing you a lifetime of magic, and would love to see you again on the dance floor sometime! Cheers, Krista

    Just out of a chance we happen to stumble upon a few of the dance instructors of Monarch Ballroom and Dancing out at a restaurant listening to music. My now husband and I were looking for a band for our wedding and we happen out of chance to find the perfect dance instructor instead. Ashley was an excellent teacher! Ashley transformed my husband's lack of dance moves - you could say he had two left feet - to dancing in a full choreographed dance for our first dance at our wedding. We learned spins, dips, and different styles of dancing between the rumba and bachata. We felt very confident the day of our wedding for our first dance and even learned other styles and moves that we were able to dance along to any song throughout the evening.

    Response from Monarch Ballroom & Dance Studio

    We remember meeting you that night and felt so lucky to get to help with your first dance as husband and wife!it was amazing to se your progress on your lessons and the beautiful finished dance! It was magical.

    This studio is the best by far. They meet you at your level and make you feel like a star. I have been attending various classes for a few months now and they are the best. Whether you are taking private lessons or dropping in for one of their hourly group classes, you will enjoy yourself. Professional. Courteous. Approachable. Welcoming. A family-like environment. I love this place and the people. My home away from home.

    Response from Monarch Ballroom & Dance Studio
