"My husband and I got married during COVID restrictions and felt that as we were only allowed one dance we might as well make it a good one! I have some experience dancing but my husband not so much. We had picked up Janice’s flyer at a wedding event before COVID and decided to contact her. We arranged for 3 x 1.5 hour dance lessons where Janice came out to our house. After a quick assessment of our boogie skills Janice was able to get a feel for us and went away and choreographed our first dance. Janice was very friendly and her enthusiasm for dancing was evident. She helped us learn the routine step-by-step, and it went down spectacularly with our guests as no one was expecting it! We would very highly recommend getting Janice involved in your big day if you want it to be that extra bit special. Not only will we never forget our first dance but neither will our guests! Thank you Janice for being such a great teacher and a wonderful person to be around"

“Janice taught my husband and I our first dance. Neither of us could dance before, when we told her we couldn't dance her reply was "Can you count to eight?, Then I can teach you to dance!" Everyone commented on our dance and asked for repeats- we ended up performing three times! I cannot thank her enough for her expertise and know if I ever need a dance teacher I have the best right here! If you're thinking about a choreographer for your first dance- BOOK JANICE, I promise, you wont regret it!”

“Janice helped my husband and I surprise our wedding guests with a great first dance! we can't, and don't dance! Janice is a lovely person and very professional, explains everything and being able to record on my phone and then practice in between lessons was a life saver! Thank you Janice for all your help, patience and most of all helping us surprise our guests and making great memories.”

“I have two left feet and no sense of rhythm...

Despite this, Janice helped me and my now wife Fiona wow a room full of relatives and friends when we did our first dance to a live version of Where You Stand by Travis at our wedding celebration.

The routine was stunning, and the dance lessons Fi and I had in the weeks before were great fun. Our first dance turned from something we were expecting to shuffle awkwardly through to to something we genuinely couldn't wait to perform. We loved the whole experience. Thank you so much.”

“If anyone is thinking about hiring a choreographer for a special wedding first dance or even a group of friends getting together to do something fun... Look no further. Myself and a group of staff from Balbirnie House hired Janice on Sunday morning to teach us the dance for Michael Jackson's Thriller and thrilled we all were. From start to finish Janice put everyone at ease and talked us through each step with patience and real expertise, the moves were easy to follow and I think everyone found their inner dancer lurking! Cannot recommend Janice enough she really is a lovely person and such good fun. I wonder when I can find another excuse. Thank you Janice, Much love Gaynor and the Balbirnie House Team”
