Your Day. Your Dance. Uniquely You.
Dance is about connection, expression and a story. I want to tell yours.
Dance is about connection, expression and a story. I want to tell yours.
I've been told time and time again that dance lessons were the favorite part of my clients' wedding planning. Planning a wedding can be stressful. Take time to connect with your partner and enjoy each other through your first dance sessions.
9 out of 10 of my couples have no previous dance experience whatsoever. I tailor each dance to the strengths of my couples to ensure you will SHINE on your big day.
"The second we walked up to the stage for our first dance we looked at each other and we knew it was "ON". Everything just fell into place and she & I were literally one it felt like. There's no doubt in my mind that Nikki loves what she does and does what she loves. She is not only dedicated to helping people achieve their breakout dance goals, she is vested in you to make sure your dance embodies YOU and your partner! Words cannot express how grateful my wife and I are that we were put in contact with Nikki to help us with our breakout dance. If you're looking for the best breakout dance instructor this side of the Mississippi and possibly all of the United States, look no further as Nikki is the real deal Holyfield" - Taylor Martin
Nikki is great! One of the best decisions we made to "splurge" on our wedding was getting our first dance choreographed. Not only did it mean we had a nice dance prepared but practicing gave us a fun and meaningful activity to do together during the otherwise stressful time of wedding planning. Nikki put a lot of effort into making our dance look really nice while keeping it manageable for two people who had never really danced before. She was also always open to any ideas we had and helped us incorporate those. It was such a fun experience (my husband ended up actually enjoying it even more than me despite the "eye roll" I got when I first mentioned wanting to go to dance practices LOL) and I highly recommend Nikki! We did both the virtual lessons and in-person lessons so I can attest that you can learn either way. We are both so thankful and happy with our decision: 5 Stars! - Danielle Joeung
This was hands down the best part of our wedding (and our wedding was awesome). Not only did we get to put on a show for our guests but we also got to enjoy all the time practicing leading up to the big day. Nikki helped pick the perfect songs and moves for me for a dance with my dad and a dance with my groom. I cannot say enough about how talented she is. And what’s even more impressive is we did 80+% of it all via zoom! (Thank you Covid). In the months of uncertainty d/t the pandemic leading up to our wedding, having these dances to practice and make us laugh and bring us together was so so so positive. And now they are memories we’ll have forever. My dad said to me after our performance that he loved learning the dance but what he really loved was getting to know me better. This is all thanks to Nikki. She nailed it for both my father-daughter dance and couple first dance. She made them fun and just the right amount of challenge. She is excessively patient and kind. You must do this! Best part of the big day! Thank you! -Angela Kreps
Working with Nikki was such a fantastic experience! She took my husband and myself-- two people with ZERO dance background-- and patiently and enthusiastically taught us our PERFECT first dance! She was flexible when we weren't feeling confident about certain moves and was encouraging when she felt we could handle something we weren't so sure about. The outcome was a show stopper. She also at one of our lessons was happy to teach my dad and I a few simple moves so that our Father Daughter dance had a polished quality to it as well. She truly is a wonderful person and has contagious energy that will make you look forward to dance lessons! Thank you, Nikki! -Stephanie Spindler
My mom found Nikki less than a month before my wedding, inspired to get dance lessons for my dad and I for the father-daughter dance. We had been planning to just do the stand-and-sway, but Nikki transformed it into something really special for us by teaching us a basic elegant waltz step, and a few turns and tricks to take it to the next level. I had so much fun that I scheduled a lesson for my now husband and I for later that week! Each pair did 3-4 lessons in those last few weeks before the wedding. Our only regret is that we didn’t start sooner! Nikki transformed our first dances from something that would be special to us into something that was memorable and special for all of our guests. We felt totally confident on the dance floor, and best of all, we all have a newfound enjoyment of dance, and the tools to make it a part of our future. Each lesson was a blast, and Nikki’s supportive energy made us feel confident that we would pull it off — and we did! I can’t recommend strongly enough that you go see Nikki for lessons before your wedding! -Georgia Voigt
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Nikki for two incredibly meaningful events, our proposal and our wedding dance. My husband found Nikki to choreograph a small flash mob for his proposal, and she created a beautiful dance in one of our favorite spots in Portland to one of my favorite songs. Once we began planning the wedding, we had no question about who to reach out to for our first dance choreography. We had a Pakistani/American fusion wedding and asked for a slow American song followed by a fast Bollywood song. Nikki delivered! My father in law said it was the best part of the wedding. Nikki is kind, attentive, and knows how to please a crowd. We give her our highest recommendation for meaningful moments like ours. You won't be disappointed! -Erica Rife
