An absolute gem of a dance instructor

Oya helped us with a choreography for the first dance of our wedding and was absolutely incredible, so much that we ended up with an elaborate dance that we'd never have dreamed of doing (we are not dancers). She is engaging, upbeat and encouraging, and she never fails to respond to messages when we need her. She really went above and beyond to make sure we were confident and prepared for the big day, and even outside of lessons we could still really feel her support. For those of you out there that would like to learn to dance, in any style, you are in good hands!

Our wedding dance!

We loved working with Oya and Ed! They made learning our first dance easy and so much fun! We were sad when our 5th class came to a close, but we couldn’t wait to show off our moves to all of our wedding guests. We hope to take some of their other dance classes in the future!

The best experience you could ask for!

Oya and Ed are the most genuinely lovely and talented people. Every session is a delight to attend. We have mainly dealt with Oya who listens to what you want and truly caters moves to your ability. She is always smiling, always so professional and just an overall incredible teacher! I have no doubt the first dance for our wedding will be 100x better thanks to the classes with her.

Unforgettable wedding dance


To our chosen wedding music, a choreography was created for our wedding dance. although we have no dance experience, the dance was composed at a much higher level than our skills. It was very easy to learn with their accompaniment, it seemed like a masterpiece to us. We felt like the best dancers and enjoyed our wedding waltz. The dance was created especially for us, no one else has it. Every dance movement was carefully thought out so that it was our story. We would definitely recommend every couple to rely on the ideas you suggested, enjoy the joy of dancing and ultimately have a fantastic, unforgettable and wonderful wedding dance.

Amazing first dance experience!

My husband and I recently worked with Ed and Oya to choreograph our first dance and could not rate them more highly. I contacted Oya about five weeks from our wedding date, when we started to get nervous about our first dance, and she was able to quickly find five hours of classes available over the next four weeks to give us time to learn and practice. They were both so enthusiastic and professional, creating the choreography with us rather than giving us a pre-construcuted routine so that it really felt personal and unique to us. They were also so encouraging to try new things, even when we were nervous about trying them! I enjoyed the classes so much and it was such a shame for them to end

Absolutely amazing experience

We took wedding dance classes with Oya and Ed for our wedding in October this year. We were two beginners with two left feet, but Oya and Ed were incredibly patient and encouraging throughout the entire process. They made us feel comfortable and confident, even when we were struggling with a particular step.

We are grateful for their expert guidance and fun teaching style. Thanks to them, we were able to pull off a dance that we were truly proud of. Our guests were amazed, and we had so much fun on the dance floor! It was a highlight of our wedding day, and we owe it all to them!

We would highly recommend their classes to anyone looking to learn to dance for a special occasion or just for fun!

Best Choice

Oya and Ed were amazing all through our collaboration. Very kind, patient and positive. We loved our lessons and look forward to go to the couple sessions when they start. We particularly enjoyed how much energy they both brought challenging us to do more but in a way that made us both very comfortable. They are clearly amazing dancers and highly experienced teachers. We were really happy with the results and definitely recommend them!

Absolutely Brilliant!

Ed and Oya were absolutely brilliant teachers! We enjoyed the classes so so much and would definitely recommend them to everyone! Not only it’s amazing to have a great memory of the wedding dance, but also it’s such an awesome experience! They made us feel at ease and we had so much fun in every class!

The most welcoming & experienced teachers

Ed & Oya have been the most welcoming, experienced and fun teachers we’ve had the pleasure meeting! My fiancé has never danced before we took first dance classes and was visibly nervous before our first session - the fact that Oya was so encouraging session after session and that Ed showed multiple variations of moves, from hard-medium-easy allowed both of us to choose what we’d feel comfortable dancing.

We’ve had six sessions, and throughout we grew in confidence and enjoyed the song (which was very hard to choreograph) and how we danced. My partner and I were the happiest dancing on our wedding night because of how Oya & Ed built our confidence and trust that we would smash the first dance - which we absolutely did!

I couldn’t recommend them enough, if I’d have the opportunity to choose them again, I would 1,000 times and more. That’s how good they are.

Best Dance Instructors for Couples

What can I say about Ed and Oya? First off, you get two amazing teachers in one go! It made everything so much easier, as I could learn from Oya, and my husband could follow Edmond’s steps. This saved us so much time since they could correct each of us individually, giving us both their full attention. Because of this, the one-hour sessions were just right for us. We started with zero dance background, but they were incredibly patient. After only five classes, we perfected our routine—although we did practice a lot on our own too. Their passion for dance and for each other is absolutely adorable. I highly recommend them!

Fantastic dance lessons!

We loved creating and learning our dance with Oya and Ed! The lessons were really fun and we really loved our dance. I’ve never really had any dance lessons and both of us weren’t sure how easy it would be to learn a full dance in the time we had, but with Oya and Ed’s guidance we managed this in the 3 weeks before our wedding!

AMAZING dance teacher ! Best one :)

We had the most AMAZING experience with Oya! 💃🕺✨
From the very beginning, she was incredibly kind, passionate, and dedicated — she didn’t count her time and gave us so much energy and love throughout the process. ❤️

We had absolutely no dance experience (two left feet!), but thanks to her infectious enthusiasm and incredible teaching, we managed not only to learn actual dance steps — but even some figures!! 😲🙌 She created a unique, personalized choreography just for us, based on three of our favourite songs (Aladdin, Queen, September) for our wedding first dance. 🎶💍

Our guests were blown away by the performance — we got so many compliments!! 🥹🎉
We truly LOVED every lesson with her. If you’re looking for someone to help you feel confident, have fun, and create a magical first dance, Oya is the one. 1000% recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thank you so much, Oya!! 🫶✨

Oya & Ed are amazing teachers!

Oya & Ed are absolute gems!
We can’t thank them enough for being such incredible first dance teachers. Over just five lessons, they created an amazing dance routine for us—one that felt uniquely ours and wowed everyone on our big day. Their passion and professionalism really stand out, but what makes them extra special is how fun and caring they are. Each session was a joy, and we always left feeling confident and excited about our progress. If you're looking for dance teachers who are dynamic, kind, and genuinely invested in making your experience unforgettable, Oya & Ed are the perfect pair. Highly recommend!

Look no further: Perfect choice for your first dance training

Oya and Ed were fantastic: neither me or my fiance had any prior dancing experience but Oya & Ed instantly put us at ease and patiently & encouragingly led us through the choreography of our first dance, whilst always making sure we like their suggested moves and are comfortable with them. While I was very nervous leading up to the big day & dance, their words of encouragement & advise really helped us through the training and nerves. Also our song choice was quite unusual (melodic metal ballad) and not your typical first dance song, but they managed to create us a stunning choreo that fit the song perfectly. In the end we managed to have a beautiful first dance which got tons of praise and tears from our audience and turns out to be one of the many highlights of our day.

Wedding dance

Oya and Ed are amazing dancing 💃🏻 🕺🏻 teachers. They very quickly taught as the basic principles of dancing and created a choreography for the song we wanted . This was tailored on us. I did not expect that we would learn to dance so nicely in a short time. And most importantly we enjoyed every minute of it! We can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day even more special and we can’t wait to learn more ! It was just the begging !
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
