We cannot recommend Jackie highly enough. Over the course of the past year, she has helped us learn, choreograph and practise our wedding dance, and she has made the entire experience one of the highlights of our wedding preparations. Jackie is incredibly patient, kind and thoughtful. She took the time to understand us as a couple and created a routine that feels natural, personal and achievable, while still looking fantastic. Every lesson has been encouraging, enjoyable and tailored to our progress. As complete beginners, we were initially quite nervous about dancing, particularly the groom, who had very little dance experience and very little confidence on the dance floor. Jackie’s supportive approach, clear guidance and endless encouragement have helped transform that anxiety into genuine confidence and excitement. She always seems to know exactly when to challenge us and when to reassure us. She is also a wonderful teacher and dance partner, with a real talent for breaking down complex movements into manageable steps. No question is ever too small, and no mistake is ever met with anything other than patience, positivity and good humour. Thanks to Jackie, we now feel genuinely excited about performing our first dance and far more confident than we ever imagined we would when we started. We are so grateful for all the time, care and expertise she has invested in us over the past year. If you’re looking for someone to help create a memorable wedding dance, Jackie is simply exceptional.

My fiancée and I worked with Jackie on our wedding dance, and she was fantastic throughout. She helped us create a choreography tailored to our chosen music and guided us through everything from the steps themselves to technique and posture, helping us feel confident and making our first dance look beautiful.
When we decided to change the music partway through, Jackie was incredibly flexible and helped us adapt the routine without any fuss. Her background as a competitive dancer really shines through in her teaching, and she has a great ability to break things down in a way that’s easy to follow.
If you’re looking for a wedding dance that will impress your guests while still feeling natural and enjoyable to learn, I’d highly recommend Jackie.

We took lessons with Jackie for our wedding dance and we were very happy with the result. Jackie guided us all the way through, supporting choosing the music, the style and the routine. She has extensive experience creating routines for weddings and I can say she accommodated our requests and corrected us very thoroughly. She always provided useful feedback and tricks or workarounds to make memorisation and practice easier. I can say that our guests were very impressed as they did not expect it and they mentioned that the dance looked natural and effortless to us. We never danced before together and we had added challenges as one of us did not enjoy dancing as such. With Jackie, we even enjoyed taking lessons, which made it the fun part of organising the wedding. I definitely recommend her to anyone that is getting married. From the people that do not know anything of dancing and want to be a bit confident on the day, to the more savvy dancers that want to impress, Jackie will definitely make the difference with your dance experience.

My husband and I had around 4/5 dance lessons with Jackie in preparation for our wedding, so that we could surprise our guests with more than a shuffle for our first dance. Having never done anything like this before we didn’t know where to start, Jackie was a fantastic teacher she planned a routine immediately and altered it to our needs lesson per lesson. She made us feel very at ease during the awkward stages and recorded our sessions so that we could practice at home. I would highly recommend Jackie to anyone that wants to learn more about dance. It was one of our favourite parts in the run up the wedding during the final weeks of the wedding planning and an amazing part of our wedding! Would 100% do it all again.
Thank you Jackie.

With our wedding day a matter of months away, we were fearful of embarrassing ourselves in front of our friends and family when it came to strutting ourselves across the dance floor for the obligatory first dance. But we made the wise decision of booking lessons with Jackie, who helped us craft a custom dance to our choice of song – Dreams by The Cranberries. While Thara had enjoyed some social dancing in her early twenties, Matt’s dance experience amounted to pointy fingers and “big fish, little fish, cardboard box” from Bob the Builder. But by the end of it, we were both confidently mastering our dance routine. The lessons were fun, tailored by Jackie to our level and gave us plenty of time to practice and hone the routine. Jackie was also flexible to with our schedule. We would gladly recommend Jackie to others who want to make their wedding dance a little more special!
