Piazza Dance

We contacted Patrick for a dance lesson to help with our wedding first dance and we are very grateful that we did. Patrick took the time to show us the basics and even kept the studio open an extra hour to give further instruction during our lesson. We felt comfortable and confident during our first dance and it is a credit to Patrick and his helpful teaching. We would recommend Piazza Dance to any wedding couple looking for professional instruction with their first dance on their wedding day.

My Husband and I took dance lessons to prepare for our wedding this past August.
Neither of us had ever danced before joining Piazza Dance School. Mr. Piazza helped us customize our first dance routine so it was perfect for us! All of our guests were amazed at our first dance! Taking Lessons here gave us the confidence to dance comfortably in front of people anywhere we go. It’s wonderful to learn to dance as a hobby.
Highly recommend group lessons to get comfortable with basic dance routines for any style of music.

I would highly recommend Piazza Dance to anyone interested in dance classes. Patrick is a very knowledgeable, talented and is an entertaining dance instructor.

My husband and I took a handful of lessons from Pat and Ms. Lynn in preparation for our wedding, as we wanted our first dance to be something really memorable and special obviously for us, but our guests as well.
I could not be more happy that we did! Pat made our first dance really appropriate for our skill level (which was pretty much zero in regard to any style of formal dance).
Personally, he is super encouraging and flexible in regard to scheduling private lessons. Not that I would recommend it– and I’m sure he wouldn’t either– Pat whipped us into shape in only a few weeks prior to our wedding! He knows his stuff.
More than anything, the true testament to his ability is that my husband actually enjoyed the whole experience! If you are questioning taking any lesson for any reason, this is the place to go.

Pat made our wedding perfect. When we showed up the first day Pat was kind, helpful, knowledgeable and most of all fun. He taught us dance not only for our first dance but, for everyday life (a two for one special in my book). Our dance impressed everyone and was super fun to learn and show off the day of the wedding. Pat was very flexible as far as meeting times go with our busy schedule was a plus. He even had time to help us plan a special dance for when we walked into the wedding. I would absolutely recommend Pat to anyone… especially all of my friends who need some dance lessons because I am so much better then them. Thanks for everything and you haven’t seen the last of Mr. and Mrs. Rodrigues.

We booked private lessons with Patrick Piazza with 4 weeks to go until our wedding. Even though we were cutting it too close for comfort, Pat figured out how to give us a completely choreographed first dance in only 4 lessons. Pat worked with us to create a first dance that made us look natural (even though we both have two left feet) and left plenty of moments for our photographers to get great pictures. We received tons of compliments from our guests about our first dance, especially the special ending Pat came up with! Pat is an excellent teacher who is able to build confidence in even complete novices like we were. I would recommend Pat to anyone looking to learn to dance for the wedding. From start to finish the experience was excellent!

I came to Patrick Piazza in September 2012 to prepare with my wife for our wedding in November 2012. At first I thought there wasn’t enough time for Patrick to teach us a first-​dance routine in just over two months. But merely five lessons later, my wife and I had the dance down «pat.»
I recommend Patrick to any novice, intermediate, or semi-​professional dancer. He has excellent routines, exceptional knowledge of various dance styles, and he is very easy to learn from.
Our first dance was a great hit at the wedding, and everyone was happily surprised.
Thank you, Mr. Piazza!

I cant recommend Piazza Dance enough!!! My husband and I were looking for a place to take dance lessons for our first dance at our wedding and luckily came across Piazza. We knew we wanted to do a traditional slow dance and then surprise our guests with a fun dance. We had three months (typically not enough time) to not only learn how to dance (my husband has never danced), but learn our first slow dance AND a surprise swing dance! Pat and Ms. Lynn put together the absolute BEST choreography and was exactly within our ability… and even exceeded what we thought we’d be able to accomplish. We took lessons once a week for three months, and was definitely the best part of planning our wedding. Pat broke each lesson down made learning the moves easy and enjoyable. When the time came, we nailed the dance and everyone enjoyed it! I didn’t think it would be possible, but with their help, we had the most amazing first dance, ever! If you’re looking for a place to take lessons, DEFINITELY recommend Piazza– I honestly cant say enough good things about them!!! Our wedding wouldn’t have been as amazing as it was without their help!

Went to a gay country western dance that featured country western partner and line dancing and other dances by request such as west coast swing, cha cha, polka, hustle, etc… This place welcomes everyone, gay and straight and I felt very comfortable going and dancing. You wear name tags that state if you are a leader, follower or can do both. Thought that was a great idea. Wished they did that at the straight dances, because there are women who lead and men who like to follow.
Around 30 dancers, mostly beginner level, with a beginner country two step dance class at 7pm and the dance is 7:30 — 10:30pm. The dancers are all very welcoming, friendly and dance with everyone, which I find very nice, being from out of town and not knowing anyone.
The venue is a converted space turned dance studio over a garage, the dance floor is amazing, fast floor with a downstairs where you can help yourself to free snacks and drinks. Parking is in a private lot below the dance studio. The air flow was good, not too hot. The charming bathroom is located next door in the main house, but not too far.
Dances are the 3^rd Friday of the month. $ 10 for the lesson and dance. Pat the owner and dance instructor is very social and makes sure everyone is having a great time and gets to dance.
