What people say4.9★ from 81 Google reviews. 2025 GOAT Award winner, Best Dance Studio.
Nervous? Read this first

Walking in alone is the normal way to start.

Almost everyone in the room walked in by themselves the first time, knowing nobody and no steps. You will not be singled out, you will not be behind, and Michael makes every beginner feel seen even when the room is full.

Come exactly as you are. Comfortable clothes, clean sneakers, a bottle of water. Nothing to buy first, nothing to know first.

Text Michael “I’m new”

Booking made simple

Three easy ways in.

Text to book a class

The fastest route. Text the class you want, or just say you are new, and Michael sends back the next time to come in.

Call if you’d rather talk

Pick up the phone and Michael will help you pick a room, sort out timing, and answer anything before you walk in.

Book a private or wedding lesson

October appointments pause from the 2nd through the 12th and resume October 13; October 15 ends at 6 PM. For weddings, share your song and date and Michael builds the first dance around the two of you.

Before you book

The questions every new booker asks.

Do I need experience or a partner to book?+
No. You can book with zero experience and come on your own. Most students walk in new and alone, the class rotates so everyone dances, and Michael teaches every step from the ground up.
What is the fastest way to book?+
Texting Michael at 618-558-6305 is the fastest way to book. Tell him which class or that you are brand new, and he replies with the next time to come in. The form on this page reaches him too.
Can I just come try a class first?+
Yes. Drop-ins are welcome, so you can come try a class before committing to anything. Send a quick text so Michael knows to look for you and you are set.
How do I book a private or wedding lesson?+
October appointments pause from the 2nd through the 12th and resume October 13; October 15 ends at 6 PM. Call or text Michael with your dates, and for weddings your song, or use the contact form, and he builds the plan around your timeline.
Come hang.

Your spot is one message away.
