Our first dance was absolutely incredible, and we have Morgan at Curtsy Ballroom to thank for it!
We reached out to Morgan with only a few weeks until the wedding, and in only a few lessons, she taught us to spin, dip, foxy, and twirl confidently around the dance floor. Most importantly, Morgan choreographed a routine that matched the words of our song perfectly. When the lyrics say "Mountain High," there's a lift, and when the lyrics say "Valley Low," there's a dip. It was an absolutely beautiful and meaningful part of our night, and our friends and family loved the surprise! Throughout all of our lessons, Morgan was endlessly friendly, patient, and kind as we learned the dance. We found ourselves looking forward to each lesson as a calm respite from the whirlwind of wedding preparation. Thank you so much for sharing your love of dance with us, Morgan!”

We worked with Morgan for four months leading up to our wedding for a choreographed first dance.
Every session we had with her was SO much fun! We loved making a date night out of our dance lessons and building excitement for the big day. Our dance was a massive hit with our guests. Several of them have continued to talk about how much they loved it! Even our wedding planner said it was one of the best first dances she'd ever seen. Morgan absolutely lived up to her promise of "dress-proof dances" because we were able to execute the entire dance without tripping on my bustled dress. Thank you so much for creating such a special part of our day!!”

In a short amount of lessons Morgan helped whip us up into shape to do a first dance that would wow our guests.
My favorite part was that we both had fun and Morgan made us feel so confident and comfortable. She is super friendly, kind and full of patience. Can’t wait for our wedding video to be finished so we can watch our dance. Our guest were wowed on the dance and were so surprised. On the wedding day we were full of smiles and just happy to be dancing together. So happy we decided to work with Morgan!

I have never danced in my life, and Morgan was so professional and such an expert at teaching beginners.
We thought about just swaying for our first dance, but after our lessons with Morgan, we ended up doing a beautiful waltz! We are very blessed that we chose to take lessons from her and we will be going back to see her in the future!”

Morgan was with us every step of the way and even gave us pointers for day of just in case we messed up!
When we first meet with her my groom gave her a very tall request! He wanted to do the tango for our first dance! She never once batted an eye and took on the task! She worked with us through all the sweat, tears and sore feet! Morgan never made us feel like we picked the wrong dance or tried to change our minds! The confidence we both have after taking her class is unbelievable! When you choose Morgan you will not regret it!
