Highly recommend!! We came to Alegria for our wedding dance classes and from the beginning it was great! We had Vanessa as our instructor and she was amazing 😍 taught us everything we needed and always had… confidence in us even though we aren’t the best dances! It was such a beautiful first dance and everyone loved it! Thanks so much Vanessa!

Positive: Professionalism, Quality
Simon, Justin & Luba at Alegria have helped us put together a wonderful choreography for our first dance. They are true professional whom you can totally rely on if you want to wow everyone. We highly recommend the Alegria team for anyone who is seeking for wedding dance lessons!

Justin helped my now husband and me create a perfect first dance. We are by no means polished dancers but Justin's experience and knowledge used our ability to make us look good. Our friends and family loved our dance as much as we did and many of our friends (already engaged or otherwise) have now committed to having a choreographed first dance because of us and when they are ready, we'll have no hesitation to point them to Alegria Dance Centre

And I had an amazing time working with Simon for our first dance at our wedding. Neither of us had any dance experience before now, he made it fun to learn and choreographed a dance that suited us perfectly. We surprised everyone at the reception with our new dance moves.
Thank you so much for teaching us.

Very good class and fun social. Not much room and gets very hot very quickly.

My Tango teacher Sheig, at Alegria, through his artistic wisdom & wealth of experience has taught me .....not only the fundamental steps as a base to build my choreographed dance, he has also educated me in the Science, the History, the Psychology and the Emotional aspects of the Argentine Tango.
Thank you Sheigfred

Simon was really easygoing and made us rookies feel really comfortable. Justin was also an enormous help mashing up our wedding first dance song at very short notice! Thanks guys!

My wife and I went to Alegria dance centre to learn a dance to perform at our wedding. We dealt with Justin and Simon and couldn't be happier with the service they provided making us feel at ease and comfortable. Our dance at the wedding was a huge hit and I strongly recommend Alegria dance centre to anyone thinking of adding something personal and special to their wedding day. Thanks again Justin and Simon.

Group classes attended - Great teachers who make learning to dance fun, in a very relaxed environment. No need for a partner either. Highly recommended

Fantastic. We are two people with zero dance experience. Justin was great from the very first contact and designed a dance that suited our wedding first dance song perfectly and was achievable for us to learn. Super professional throughout and great fun. Would highly recommend and already have done to a few friends

I joined Alegria Dance Centre to learn wedding dance with my fiancé and I am truly pleasured with the dance lessons I was taught by Justin. He created friendly environment in the dance sessions. It was an overwhelming experience to learn wedding dance from Alegria Dance Centre. I would like to thank Alegria Dance Centre for making my wedding dance the most beautiful moment for me which I cherished the most.
