Dorian is truly AMAZING - both as a person and dance instructor!!! In one week, he was able to have both my wife and I, neither of which have any dance experience, comfortably completing a ballroom dance to our first dance song! According to our family and friends this should be considered a miracle! He also was the DJ at our wedding and did an AWESOME job! The dance floor was packed the entire night! He is the guy you want if you are looking for an actual DJ who can read crowds and keep the party going. He had people singing in their seats during dinner and still belting out the lyrics during the last song of the night. Almost every single good-bye from guests at the end of the night included some comment on how awesome the DJ was. Beyond being a fantastic dance instructor and DJ, both my wife and I loved working with Dorian because of his personality. He is extraordinarily positive and an extreme pleasure to be around. We were both excited to go to our lesson each day during the week. Both sets of parents even came to one lesson and both left after one hour saying they wanted more time/lessons with him and immediately had great feelings about him. If we lived in the area we both agreed we would continue taking lessons from him. You will be glad you took the time to meet and learn from Dorian if you ever have the pleasure.

Had an absolute blast at our lessons with Dorian and we left feeling truly confident in our wedding first dance. We're no experts, but we learned enough to impress ourselves! Mostly, we now have the confidence to have FUN while dancing rather than worrying what we look like/feeling self-conscience. Would definitely recommend!

We came across Dorian through the DJ we booked for our wedding. We went to a free lesson (due to booking with the DJ) and I was hooked. I've always wanted to take dance lessons and this was the perfect occasion. If I lived closer I would FOR SURE go see him again. The lessons leading up to the wedding were 100% beneficial to us EXCEPT my wedding dress made it nearly impossible for my husband to maneuver around BUT that we expected (not Dorian's fault). Thank You DORIAN!

Dorian is the BEST! We came to him with 2 weeks until our wedding, and in 5 classes, we had a full wedding routine. He was patient, kind, and constructive in feedback in making sure we understood our dance steps and made them our own. He let us know his goal was to make it "our dance, not just the dance Dorian taught you" and he gave us the support and skills to make that happen! Our guests were WOWED on our wedding day! He has a great studio in his home that is spacious and easy to get to. TOTALLY recommend if you want a wedding dance that isn't the usual 'swaying'.

My husband and I took 10 private lessons with Dorian in preparation for our first dance at our wedding. Although I have a background in ballet and my husband is athletic, neither of us had any experience with ballroom dance. Dorian took us under his wing and gradually showed us the ropes of the Latin Hustle. While our dance skills certainly improved from week to week, even more importantly so did our connection with one another. This is because Dorian's teaching style helps couples learn to dance (and communicate) through touch and feeling one another rather than through memorizing a predetermined arrangement of steps. Dorian did indeed help us have fun and look great on the dance floor but more than that, our dance lessons with him brought us closer together as a couple. Dorian is truly a gem and a very talented dance instructor. We can't thank him enough!
