A Couples Wedding & Date-night Dancing Course!
Dancing Made Simple For Soon-To-Be Newlyweds!
Your Moment, Your Way!

Nowadays, the first dance is barely even mentioned when sharing the story of a wedding.
And oftentimes, when talking to couples years after their wedding, they sadly either don’t even remember it or regret not taking lessons...

Your First Dance Shouldn't Be The Last One…
Hi, my name is BRISA, and I’ve been dancing with Chad for 12 years and teaching wedding couples for the last 6 years.
One I could be proud of…
One my family and friends would remember forever!
It was my wedding and I wanted everything to be as perfect as it could be!
After mentioning this to Kim - my wedding planner - she gave me Chad’s number and said "CONTACT THIS GUY for dance lessons! He’s the best wedding dance instructor in the industry!"
So I decided to give Chad a call to schedule my first lesson!
My fiance sent me alone, and said he “already knew how to dance”… and that I was the one who needed lessons...
My mind was racing…
What if this is hard? What if I don’t do a good job? What if I embarrass myself?
What if I don’t get along with the instructor…
The next thing I knew, I was walking into a HUGE studio with LOTS of other dancers.
I NEVER would’ve thought I could ever dance…
I felt more confident and comfortable with myself and in my own body!
A moment I had not felt in years!
It was at that moment... I knew I was going to dance for the rest of my life!
Twelve years later, I'm now teaching with Chad, helping others just like me learn to dance and create a special moment of their First Dance they will forever remember and cherish!

What Most People Get WRONG About Learning How To Dance…
Dancing is natural and simple!
Some people think that no one is born knowing how to dance;
that it’s something you either have or don’t have: THIS IS A MYTH!
The truth is…
Dancing is something you learn and create within yourself!
It’s not about whether you have rhythm or not…
The REAL difference is one’s perception of dance, what someone thinks dancing is … and overall MINDSET.
Your MINDSET can prevent you from dancing … and your MINDSET can make it happen!"

The truth is...
Everyone has rhythm...
But what is rhythm?
It’s your breath, it’s your walk, it’s your heart beat…
Everything you need to succeed is already within you!
Some of them walked in stressed, doubtful, and self-conscious …
Some of them even thought there was no way they could learn how to dance; some had already tried unsuccessfully; some had even spent months and thousands of dollars trying!
Then, after only a few minutes with us … their facial expression and mindset completely changes!
“Oh my god! I can do this!”
“This is so much easier than I ever thought!”
“I’m dancing! I’m Dancing!”
They become believers! They build confidence and it all comes together from there -- all they need is practice!
Don’t expect to be perfect right away...
It will help you avoid that fear of “looking stupid.”
So, what IS the “right kind of practice?”
It will teach you the skills to create a beautiful and elegant First Dance with simplicity, a common-sense approach, and efficient practice!
If that’s something you’re interested in right now...

"Thanks to you! We had a fairytale wedding! Everything was perfect. . .even our dance routine! Everyone there was absolutely SHOCKED! After we were introduced, we had the bridal party line up against the table, surrounding the dance floor and we went right into our routine! Thanks again Chad & Brisa, couldn’t have asked for better instructors!"
Jenny & Martin.
"You made our special day even more special. Thank you so much for your great instruction and encouragement."
"This was a lot of fun. We look forward to doing it again! We learned the basics about dancing, some good steps, it was a good intro class. It was most useful being able to see the instructors show moves and do the moves ourselves. It was great."
"We liked the lesson - Chad's got skills. Brisa is amazing. Learning about kinesthetic learners was the most useful."
"We loved Chad & Brisa! They made it so easy! No dance lesson I've/we've taken made us feel so confident."
Samantha W.
Ariel B
“Chad is an excellent dancer and teacher. He made us enjoy the process of learning to dance with his infectious humor and easy to follow moves. Brisa was so sweet and patient. We are thinking of going back after the wedding just for more learning to dance and fun.”
Anthony W
"Chad and Brisa helped me not only learn to dance well for my wedding, they made dance lessons something my wife and I looked forward to. I struggled to learn to dance in the past, but they were very good at seeing my challenges, and creating solutions to get past them. They are amazing teachers."
Megan
“Can't say enough about Chad, Brisa and company! It was a fabulous experience - so easy to learn and the finished product looked great! I had not taken dance lessons as an adult and my fiancee had taken a few swing lessons many years ago so we knew we wanted help to avoid doing the "high school shuffle" at our wedding.
“We learned the basics (not just by counting), we created a routine to OUR song, with back up moves, we practiced andthe finished product was fabulous! We very much enjoyed the experience with Chad learning to dance - they made it very EASY to learn and we felt supported and encouraged every step of the way. Definitely recommend Chad and Team!”

EVER GOTTEN ‘HOOKED ON A FEELING’?
Hi, my name is Chad & I’ve been dancing for 33 years. . .
I didn’t start out as a dancer. I was an All-Star Athlete; played semi-pro ball; qualified for two Olympic sports – but definitely NOT a dancer.
I do remember going out with friends and watching THEM dance, but never getting onto the floor myself.
Then one time I was walking to my college class and passed by a studio with a silhouette of a couple… I was captivated by the energy I felt.
A couple years later I saw the same silhouette in an ad as I was looking for a new career, a new beginning…
The job application included a three-hour dance lesson, a written and an oral presentation, and a potential scholarship to be trained as a dance instructor.
Thirteen of us applied. Thirteen hopefuls flailing about – trying to keep up. LOL!
If you’ve seen the movie, “A Chorus Line” imagine a FAR less impressive scene than the audition scene in the movie!
Thank goodness we weren’t in front of an audience – the confusion was obvious as the teacher gave rapidly changing instructions, moving us in different directions. It was CLEAR none of us had done this before.
Me? I was hooked!
… I LOVED it.
… It challenged me.
… I had found my purpose.
Photo by Light Rain Images
I loved it! It felt healing. It was fun and fulfilling.
I saw how dancing transformed lives: people grew, became happier, able to enjoy lifelong learning.
I was successful … I saw a future …
Dancing let me become even more of “me” … mentally, physically, emotionally… a better, more complete person.
I went on to compete professionally as well as developing great pro-am students.
In 1999, a special wedding dance opportunity came my way… I was invited to help create a new, more exciting stage show for what would become the largest Bridal Show in the country.
Other instructors and studios were also asked to join this venture, but they were not interested in the “one-shot deal” of teaching wedding couples. Also, the standard approach of the studios just did not work for most Wedding Couples.
I wasn’t afraid to do the work. I “showed up.”
… and again, by simply showing up, this led to a life-long journey of teaching Wedding Couples.
Since 1999, I have been featured not only at the Bridal Show, but I’ve been the only dancer willing to “show up” and perform First Dance and Wedding Dance numbers at the many Open Houses, Mock Weddings and Wedding Tours.
As a result, I became known as Arizona’s Wedding Dance Specialist, the “go-to guy” for First Dances, Mother-Son Dances, Father-Daughter Dances … Engaged Couples, Wedding Planners, DJs, Photographers, florists, and other fellow wedding professionals – all reached out to me for anything wedding-dance related.
Teaching Wedding couples is one of the greatest pleasures I get out of being in the dance world…
… a fulfilling way for me to share the gifts I’ve received from dancing
… it offers physical, mental and emotional healing
… it has helped me through some of the worst hurdles and losses in my life
Couples have told me I have a natural ability to put them at ease, to bring out that special something they have in their relationship, to get ANYONE dancing.
Even when couples are under tremendous stress, preparing for the First Dance can be one of the most upbeat parts of wedding planning and a way to stay connected.
Some have even gone on to perform with me at the Bridal Show, and travel with me to compete at some of the most prestigious Ballroom Dance competitions in the country.
I treat my clients the way I wish to be treated. With respect, consideration and transparency.
And what you WON’T get is also important:
… You won’t get a “used car salesman” sales pitch
… You won’t be forced to do a dance you don’t want to do
… You won’t be pushed to exceed your wedding budget
With us you get to choose your song, your dance style, your budget…
…to create YOUR FIRST DANCE, YOUR WAY
I invite you to join us on this magical, yet simple journey.
Click below to experience how quickly and easily we can turn the “prom sway” into an elegant and complete dance.
Dance has a way of bringing up our insecurities, and emotional/psychological wounds – ideally one takes this on to heal it and create a wonderful life.
Sadly, some people “choose” to stay stuck there… or… they just simply can’t move past it yet.
Maybe your wedding isn’t until later on… “I have plenty of time” you’re thinking…
However, we see it all the time…Closer to your wedding day the busier you’ll be and won’t find the time to learn the proper dancing for your special moment when all eyes are on you...
You’ll miss out, and your only First Dance moment can potentially end up a disaster...
Don’t let that happen…
Don’t be “that wedding.”
You’ll miss out, and your only First Dance moment can potentially end up a disaster...
Don’t let that happen…
Don’t be “that wedding.”
Don’t wait until you’re too busy… having to plan, meet with dj’s, cake tastings, venue selection, event scheduling and invitations etc.
A lot of people I get to know over the years who look me in the eyes to tell me one of the things they truly regret is not taking lessons…
This isn’t just about your wedding day, but you can also take these lessons everywhere else with you going forward! Date nights and honeymoons etc.!
You only plan your wedding once! Don’t miss out on the opportunity to make the most of your special moment, your special day, and your special dance!
