John Cassese The Dance Doctor

We went to John Cassese after being referred by a friend and her husband. We didn't shop around, but it's in a great location so you can transform your dance lesson night into date night. John will try to pressure you into getting more lessons than you want, but that's his job and he's quite a personality. Sarah is the best instructor! Sooooo nice and patient and good at assessing what you can handle- especially if you're running out of time before the wedding. Probably not the cheapest shop in town, but they definitely make dancing a lot of fun, and perfect for turning around the reluctant-at-first fiance.

We called John the Monday before our wedding to help us arrange our first dance - while we didn't have time to memorize a routine, his staff was able to teach us the basics as well as a few impressive beginning/ending moves that made everyone think we knew what we were doing. John himself came out to watch our progress and practice with us - it was great fun, and made all the difference in our first dance.
