    Amazing first dance experience!

    My husband and I recently worked with Ed and Oya to choreograph our first dance and could not rate them more highly. I contacted Oya about five weeks from our wedding date, when we started to get nervous about our first dance, and she was able to quickly find five hours of classes available over the next four weeks to give us time to learn and practice. They were both so enthusiastic and professional, creating the choreography with us rather than giving us a pre-construcuted routine so that it really felt personal and unique to us. They were also so encouraging to try new things, even when we were nervous about trying them! I enjoyed the classes so much and it was such a shame for them to end

    Wedding dance

    Oya and Ed are amazing dancing 💃🏻 🕺🏻 teachers. They very quickly taught as the basic principles of dancing and created a choreography for the song we wanted . This was tailored on us. I did not expect that we would learn to dance so nicely in a short time. And most importantly we enjoyed every minute of it! We can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day even more special and we can’t wait to learn more ! It was just the begging !

    Absolutely amazing experience

    We took wedding dance classes with Oya and Ed for our wedding in October this year. We were two beginners with two left feet, but Oya and Ed were incredibly patient and encouraging throughout the entire process. They made us feel comfortable and confident, even when we were struggling with a particular step.

    We are grateful for their expert guidance and fun teaching style. Thanks to them, we were able to pull off a dance that we were truly proud of. Our guests were amazed, and we had so much fun on the dance floor! It was a highlight of our wedding day, and we owe it all to them!

    We would highly recommend their classes to anyone looking to learn to dance for a special occasion or just for fun!

    Made our wedding experience

    Oya and Ed, were amazing dance teachers. They listened to what we wanted and made it fun, so we enjoyed it so much as part of the wedding - not just in the day.

    Look no further: Perfect choice for your first dance training

    Oya and Ed were fantastic: neither me or my fiance had any prior dancing experience but Oya & Ed instantly put us at ease and patiently & encouragingly led us through the choreography of our first dance, whilst always making sure we like their suggested moves and are comfortable with them. While I was very nervous leading up to the big day & dance, their words of encouragement & advise really helped us through the training and nerves. Also our song choice was quite unusual (melodic metal ballad) and not your typical first dance song, but they managed to create us a stunning choreo that fit the song perfectly. In the end we managed to have a beautiful first dance which got tons of praise and tears from our audience and turns out to be one of the many highlights of our day.

    Absolutely Brilliant!

    Ed and Oya were absolutely brilliant teachers! We enjoyed the classes so so much and would definitely recommend them to everyone! Not only it’s amazing to have a great memory of the wedding dance, but also it’s such an awesome experience! They made us feel at ease and we had so much fun in every class!

    Lessons for wedding first dance

    We had five lessons with Ed and Oya ahead of our wedding. They helped us form a routine for our first dance, practice and perfect it.
    We were complete novices, so the first lesson was learning techniques and then the rest was forming the routine. Ed and Oya would give us suggestions of 'moves' and let us pick what we thought was best. They also made sure to match the music perfectly.
    More generally, Ed and Oya are a blast and we really looked forward to each lesson. Having two people teach meant we each got specific attention to help us.
    They were also very flexible with plenty of slots to attend the studio and responsive on Whatsapp.

    Overall would highly recommend them!

    They helped creat one of our best memories!

    Oya and Ed helped us craft our wedding dance in such a beautiful way. We are forever grateful for their help, professionalism and passion, and the result is a memory that is so fond to us and we'll never forget it. Thank you!

    Best Choice

    Oya and Ed were amazing all through our collaboration. Very kind, patient and positive. We loved our lessons and look forward to go to the couple sessions when they start. We particularly enjoyed how much energy they both brought challenging us to do more but in a way that made us both very comfortable. They are clearly amazing dancers and highly experienced teachers. We were really happy with the results and definitely recommend them!

    Best Dance Instructors for Couples

    What can I say about Ed and Oya? First off, you get two amazing teachers in one go! It made everything so much easier, as I could learn from Oya, and my husband could follow Edmond’s steps. This saved us so much time since they could correct each of us individually, giving us both their full attention. Because of this, the one-hour sessions were just right for us. We started with zero dance background, but they were incredibly patient. After only five classes, we perfected our routine—although we did practice a lot on our own too. Their passion for dance and for each other is absolutely adorable. I highly recommend them!
