Michael is a stellar instructor! Because of him, my wife and I blew everyone at our wedding away. He he has plenty of patience and explains everything in such an understandable manner, even newbies like me and wife had everyone hootin’ and hollerin’! Not only that, but he was very reasonable on pricing. Do yourself a favor and learn from Michael!

Michael was a great instructor for my wife and I on our wedding dance. We did lessons for a year as a secret and surprised our entire family with the dance. It was a truly special memory and moment. Not to mention that every time we met with Michael, he was fun, witty, and easy to befriend. 10/10 would recommend him to any couple looking for dance lessons

We had such an amazing experience working with Michael for our wedding first dance! We took 20 lessons leading up to the big day, and every single one was worth it. He really focused on teaching my husband how to lead, which made it so much easier for me to just relax and flow with the movements. I loved seeing my husband’s confidence grow so much throughout the process. Michael paid close attention to our footwork and even helped my husband learn how to “walk” lol. The lessons were not only productive but also so much fun. There was always laughter, and it became something we genuinely looked forward to as a date night. Scheduling was incredibly easy and flexible, which made the whole process stress-free. We’re so grateful for the experience and will absolutely be back to take more dance lessons in the future!

We came to Michael at Z Dance as total beginners—like, really starting from scratch. We weren’t even in sync walking side-by-side and had to start there! But from the very first day, Michael made us feel completely comfortable and capable. He met us right where we were, with so much patience and positivity. We came in with a few song ideas, and Michael walked us through how to find the tempo and understand what kind of dance would suit us best. When we changed songs a few weeks in, he rolled with it effortlessly and reworked the choreography without missing a beat. He never just told us what to do, he explained WHY certain moves worked, asked great questions, and guided us in a way that felt collaborative and supportive, not intimidating. Michael made us feel secure, celebrated and confident. Something that we didn’t expect was how much our dance lessons would become the calm in the middle of all the chaos of daily life and wedding planning. Our sessions with Michael were relaxed, fun, and gave us space to just be together. No stress, no pressure. It became something we truly looked forward to every week, a little moment of peace where we could forget the to-do lists and reconnect. It definitely brought us closer as a couple. Michel truly thinks of everything—asking about the shoes I’d wear, the dress skirt, the outdoor gravel/dirt surface we’d be dancing on, and tailoring the choreography accordingly. He really is a master in every sense. Hannah was also absolutely amazing—super warm, welcoming, and helpful with everything behind the scenes. Between the two of them, we always felt like we were just hanging out with good friends who happened to be dance pros. The studio itself is gorgeous; spacious, gorgeously decorated, clean, and full of people having a genuinely great time. There was zero pressure or pretense, and there was always a lot of laughter and fun going on. It’s been a year since our wedding, and we still talk about going back—maybe for some country dancing this time. Whether you're a total beginner (like we were!) or you're looking to choreograph something more advanced, this is THE place. We’ll never stop recommending them. Michael and Hannah are truly the best people with the best studio.

Michael was an amazing instructor and did a phenomenal job choreographing a first dance to remember for our wedding! We spent several months with Michael learning simple ballroom basics and west coast swing before going through our first dance. We had a great time at every lesson and looked forward to attending every time we went. Michael is not only very talented, but he makes the experience enjoyable, and knows how to tailor the dance to his students’ ability, vision, and song choice. It was truly a privilege getting to work with Michael.
