We enrolled our daughter in the toddler dance class last term and she LOVED it! The dance teacher was fantastic worked really well with her in a way she could understand and still learn. It was a fantastic way for her to get out and learn a new skill in a fun way. We will be enrolling her this term too!

Lindsey with IWD choreographed our wedding dance in 6 lessons and it was an incredible experience resulting in a fantastic first dance. Just trust her and her process...you won't regret it.

In addition to the technical aspects, we also really felt like IWD was accommodating, respectful, and kind. We had some unforeseen complications that made scheduling our first lesson a little difficult and Megan worked with
