Marcin is an amazing dance teacher! Both my husband and I are so called 'freestylers' when it comes to dancing, so it was a no-brainer we need to find a professional that would help us with first dance choreography for our wedding.
Marcin was everything we needed:
– we felt like kings and everything was tailored made to our needs.
-classes were held at the pace we felt comfortable with, not too fast, not too slow- just right.
– he guided us through the entire process and we felt comfortable and confident with his knowledge and expertise.
– we felt like we came up with that first dance genius — Madchill
Dusanka and the dance studio have been amazing for us. As newcomers to dancing, her patient teaching made learning enjoyable. With her guidance, my future husband and I went from beginners to dancing a lovely choreography together. The studio's welcoming atmosphere made it easy to learn and practice. Thanks to Dusanka, we're now confident dancing partners for our wedding. We're grateful for this special journey and the connection we've built through dance.— YIPING GOU
Marcin is the best teacher in the world. Together with my wife we choose him to help us with our wedding dance. It's been a pleasure to work with Marcin as he is creative, genuine, honest, professional and good looking man. As a teacher he pay a lot of attention to detail and correct posture/form – I like that because it just looks better. He gave us helpful clues and tips. I highly recommend Marcin as a teacher.— Piotr Mizerek

Salsa is approachable, with the timing being the main early challenge. Steady practice soon makes the basic steps feel natural.
Yes. No dance background is needed, and careful, detailed teaching makes the first steps manageable for complete beginners.
Adults can certainly take up ballet, though this academy focuses on partner dancing. For ballet you would look to a dedicated class.
There is no age that is too late to begin dancing for enjoyment. Adults of all ages take up new styles here.
Line dancing commonly uses the grapevine, kick-ball-change, walks, turns and taps, though the focus here is on partner dancing rather than line dancing.
Simple, repetitive routines are the gentlest introduction to line dancing. If that is your interest, it is worth checking what is available nearby.
