“My goal for you is to become comfortable and confident, look natural and have FUN on the dance floor
in just ONE SESSION ~ guaranteed!” Cynthia Glinka
Cynthia offers an original and unique approach to partner dance instruction with rapid results.
If you can walk, you can dance
Spin, dip and dance your way to the bedroom !
Is this ballroom dancing? Well, yes AND no! Competition or extensive training is not our goal.
I focus less on footwork and emphasize upper body posture and elementary steps – the closed position hold (in an intimate embrace) and simple variations that can be easily led and comfortably followed.
Swing, Fox Trot, Tango, Rumba & Waltz also available – in a social dance style.
I encourage clients not to ‘choreograph’ but to have a sense of spontaneity on the dance floor.
No pressure – we’re not going for a trophy here folks!
Learning to dance can be the best part of preparing for your wedding day.
Specializing in reluctant partners.

"I encourage ALL my clients to take dance lessons with Cynthia!"
"I first met Cynthia Glinka about 5 years ago, at an industry networking event. I still remember quite vividly her amazing energy, and the spark in her eyes when she described herself as a dancer. Thereafter, I began to send her my clients that needed dance lessons. As I saw the way she transformed my clients' confidence level on the dance floor, I was in awe. Even the shyest of the grooms who swore they had two left feet could be seen gracefully spinning his beautiful bride on the dance floor after just ONE lesson with Cynthia! It was magic!
Shortly after getting the fabulous feedback from my clients, I now encourage ALL my clients to do dance lessons with Cynthia. Even if they don't feel like they need it, it's a really fun part of the wedding planning process. One of my brides last year literally said she laughed so hard at the very first lesson that her stomach hurted for the rest of the night. She scheduled two more lessons with Cynthia after that, just to have fun!" Jubilee Lau Events

Can I afford a private session? Some folks instinctively know it’s a necessity. A luxury you can afford – you’ll be dancing with the one you love. After your wedding celebration-the cake is eaten, flowers are wilted, photos are tucked away in albums, the wedding dress is packed away – but you'll still be dancing. It’s an investment for your lifetime together.
Every client is unique and I prefer a quick phone chat to gain insight into your vision.
We respect your time and return calls and emails within 24 hours.
We are not your typical store front or franchise studio.
Cynthia Glinka’s instruction in couples' dancing does not discriminate between who leads and who follows, based on gender.
