We realized ahead of time that we need dance lessons even for a simple first dance and searched online for dance instructors in Toronto GTA. We decided on George solely based on the online reviews and his website. We are so happy that we decided to work with George to choreograph our first dance. George is very talented, funny and witty, and it was a fun process all-around learning our first dance leading up to our wedding.
George made us feel at ease and choreographed a wonderful dance for our wedding. He was very accommodating with time even though we started last minute (very close to our wedding date). George choreographed a beautiful first dance for our wedding. Our song was a bit unusual, but he made it work and came up with a great routine that we were comfortable doing and worked with our style.

Please keep in mind that the following topics will come up during our first and successive wedding dance lessons. It would greatly help if you know the information beforehand but don't worry if you are uncertain of anything, we can always start working together first. We will be more than happy to help you develop solutions and ideas as we move ahead.
We've just decided to have a private wedding dance choreography and there's not much time left. Is it possible to still learn something? The basic steps in Ballroom Dancing are easy to learn and remember. Together we'll decide upon a dance style. We will help you create a choreographed wedding dance that is both easy to learn and beautiful to watch.
If it is becoming unbearable, you should talk to your wedding dance choreographer (who is also your dance lawyer, dance policeman, dance doctor and dance instructor!). Fog might also confuse and visually impair the couple themselves during the dance. This might be even more uncomfortable if the groom is unused to dancing with the bride while she is in her wedding dress.
My husband and I took classes with George prior to our wedding to learn a routine for our first dance, and we honestly can't say enough wonderful things about George! He was an amazing instructor who was able to teach us the choreography with a month left before our wedding, working tirelessly and patiently to ensure that we really understood the steps and the execution.

George was simply fantastic. We didn't know what to expect going into our first trial lesson, but we were quickly convinced to get five more lessons with George before our wedding. Not only did he give us a really great series of moves and teach us how to move as a couple, but he taught us how to lead/follow mixed in with pre-marital advice!! We had so much fun dancing, learning, and laughing. Thanks to George, our first dance wowed our guests and was one of the most memorable parts of our night.

George is a great instructor for dance, esp if you plan for your "First" dance in your special day! You just need to give him your favorite song, then he "Designs" the dance for you based on your capabilities and interests! It really doesn't matter if you know anything about dancing or music! You even feel the difference after first session!
I myself never danced before but we had a great performance in our wedding and it made our night even more special!
I and my wife enjoyed it a lot a have decided to get back to him for more dancing classes. It's fair to say he opened a new world to us! We

As someone with no dancing experience at all, I was very nervous before our first class with George. However, from the moment we first met George and started learning some basics from him, I suddenly felt so much more at ease. He is such an incredible teacher who really knows how to build your confidence, and he was always so patient with us. I can't recommend George enough. Whether you just want to learn how to dance or, like my wife and I, wanting a special dance for your wedding, you should contact George. He's funny, good hearted, and an amazing dance instructor who helps build your confidence

George was the best! If you are getting married, you MUST come here. Before coming for our first lesson, we were really stressed as neither of us can dance. However, George made it fun, easy and very enjoyable. While dancing we would both forget about everything and enjoy, which really took away a lot of pressure from wedding planing. Today was our last lesson, and we were leaving with mixed feelings - we are happy to feel confident with our dance but sad at the same time to be done. Now we are looking forward to our wedding and I absolutely can’t wait for our first dance!!

George really helped us go from not knowing how to dance at all to having a really killer wedding dance. He had a lot of great tips for the day and for everything in general. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for any kind of dance lessons

My fiance and I began taking lessons with George about 1 month before our wedding. We did 7 lessons. My mom got us the lessons as a gift for Christmas. I must admit, I was skeptical and never thought that I would enjoy dance lessons. George's personality was so perfect for teaching me and dealing with my lack of coordination. He knew exactly how to coach us and choreograph a dance for us and help us do more then we could have imagined.
I could not say better things about George. I thought I had 2 left feet before the lessons and I was so amazed with what we were able to learn and do in just 4

My fiancé and I wanted to learn a choreographed dance for our first dance at our wedding. Neither of us has had any prior training and I had the firm belief that I was born with 2 left feet. On top of that we had busy schedules, and were under a time crunch. We were looking for someone who is professional, understanding, and flexible.
George delivered on everything we were looking for, and more. He was professional, patient and there was never any judgement in his voice (even though we moved like stick figures at first). He tailored the choreography to our comfort level and worked with us tirelessly

We are so happy that we decided to work with George for our first wedding dance. He did an excellent job with the choreography, which was well suited to us and the song we selected. And we really appreciated his sense of humour and patience while we practiced to get it right in time for our wedding. He makes you feel comfortable and confident, and his suggestions helped us make it better. Our dance was such a fun part of our day for both us and our guests to the point that we got a standing ovation. What a wonderful, memorable experience! Thank you, George, we wish you all the best!!

I am so glad that my husband and I have chosen George as our instructor! From the very first meeting he made us confident that we can learn the dance we want! He was very tentative to our preferences and abilities. He was very fun, and easygoing, and at the same time very knowledgeable and patient! It is very important to not only be a professional dancer, but also to be able to teach other people who has little to no experience - and George is the one who can do that!
I am glad that we decided to start preparation for our first dance a few months in advance before our wedding day, because it

As I started planning my wedding, my dad suggested that we all (my parents and my husband-to-be and I) take dance lessons and that it might be fun. In the end, my dad and I and my mom and dad continued with lessons with the instructor, George. We ended up taking lessons for about two months, twice weekly, with George to prepare for my dance with my dad, and my parents have continued to see him since.
Each lesson is approximately 45 minutes and its a private lesson with George. There are no other people in the room so the focus is 100% on you. You can pay as you go or you can purchase a package

My husband and I came to Your Wedding Dance about 14 weeks before our wedding. Neither of us knew how to dance. Not even a little bit.
What had drawn me to George, the instructor, were his credentials -- he is an award winning ballroom dancer-- and the fact that he offered a free introductory lesson.
At the introductory lesson he taught my (then) Fiancé and I a basic box step and a few other moves. He immediately put as at ease with his warm blue eyes and patient teaching style. We bought a 10 class package.
In the weeks leading up to our wedding, George put together a dance routine for us
