Stacy is so personable. We loved working with her. She’s so helpful in teaching. When she tries to explain something one way and notices it’s not quite working, she pivots. She’s very good at adapting to your ability and giving valuable feedback. We had so much fun taking lessons with her. The price was really fair too, I can’t thank her enough for such fun lessons we had leading up to our wedding.

Stacy was so much fun to work with! My fiancé and I had a great time working with her on our first dance for our wedding. We did 5 sessions and each week we felt a little more confident since we had no prior experience at all. I'll be honest, I was still pretty nervous for the dance since we had only practiced it a few times without any mistakes, but we absolutely nailed it our reception!! 10/10 Stacy is your gal to help get you wedding ready!!! We even had friends ask if we had been practicing for the whole year!!

Stacy Lynn

Ballroom dance instructor

I’ve been dancing since I was a little girl — ballet, tap, jazz, modern, you name it. I continued dancing through college, and even after stepping into my career as a movement teacher, I found myself missing the joy, artistry, and connection that dance brings. Discovering ballroom as an adult changed everything. I fell in love with how it blends technique, partnership, communication, and fun, and how it supports people of all ages and abilities. Teaching wedding couples has become my favorite part of what I do. There’s something incredibly special about helping two people create a first dance that reflects their relationship — the teamwork, the trust, the laughter, and the celebration of their love. I also bring years of experience as a movement instructor, which means I work especially well with beginners and anyone who feels nervous about dancing. My goal is always to help you feel confident, comfortable, and connected while creating memories that last a lifetime. Whether you want something classic, playful, elegant, or uniquely yours, I’m here to make your first dance (and parent dances!) a joyful part of your wedding story.

Stacy is the best!!!! My husband and I took dance lessons with Stacy for our first dance for our wedding this past May as well as my dad and I for our father daughter dance. Stac...

y choreographed a beautiful and exciting dance to the song we chose (and taught my dad and I a beautiful Waltz) and helped us make both incredibly special. She is an extremely talented dancer and has a vast knowledge of all things to do with dance. We could not have asked for a better instructor as she is incredibly warm, kind, and patient especially given that we both had very little dance experience. We did five lessons, and they were so fun we were sad when they ended! My husband and I wanted to do a dance that we were actually proud of and not just the classic wedding "sway," and we're beyond grateful for Stacy and everything she did to make that a reality. Our guests were truly in awe, and we were getting compliments long after the wedding was over. One guest literally told us it was her favorite part of the entire wedding! If you're looking for a wonderful instructor to make your first dance memorable, special, and entertaining for your guests, go to Stacy!!!! She really is the best of the best.

helped them with their first dance arrangement and helped them pick their song which the were able to video tape and take with them! She also helped me with a gift certificate so I could have it printed up for them and I was able to pay her through Venmo and wow we had an awesome presents for the newly engaged couple!!! I would highly recommend Stacy to the beginner dancer- she was encouraging and excited to help make their time together special!! Thank you Stacy!!!
