Justin and the entire team at Alegria Dance Centre make you feel welcome from the moment you step foot inside the studio doors. Having started with zero dance experience, I began private dance lessons with Justin to simply learn the basic steps. Being taught by someone who has so much enthusiasm and passion for teaching dance, it was hard not to be inspired to push myself further. So now, I thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to perform in front of my family and friends at the biannual Gala Balls. I highly recommend Alegria, you won’t be disappointed!

Dear Justin, Thank you for teaching us such an awesome and fun dance for our wedding. It blew our guests away and as you can see it made for some amazing photos.

Fantastic. We are two people with zero dance experience. Justin was great from the very first contact and designed a dance that suited our wedding first dance song perfectly and was achievable for us to learn. Super professional throughout and great fun. Would highly recommend and already have done to a few friends.
