What makes Dance With Mark special is the balance of fun and professionalism. Mark is passionate about fundamentals, technique, and musicality, yet he keeps the vibe light and fun so you actually enjoy learning.
The progressive curriculum means you build confidence quickly instead of memorizing random moves that fade away. He teaches more than just steps — he teaches you how to move your body the right way so you look like you actually know what you're doing.
I used to dread stepping on the dance floor; now I can’t wait to show off at social events.

Other studios felt chaotic — random steps every week that I’d forget by the time I got home.
Mark’s classes are different. They’re structured, logical, and supportive.
I never thought I’d actually be able to dance, but here I am, confidently dancing full songs.

We were looking for a fun activity to do together, and Mark's classes became the best part of our week!
Not only are we moving and laughing more, but we’ve also made new friends and found a hobby we can do together and actually look forward to.
It’s not even so much about the dancing for us — it’s about the amazing people, the positive energy, and the hour of fun, movement, and connection.
If you want to add more fun and play to your life, give Mark's classes a try — you won't regret it!
What Makes Our Program Different?
Other studios teach random, disconnected steps... Our structured program teaches you EVERYTHING you need to become a natural, confident dancer for life.
Drop-in classes feel fun in the moment…
But they're a terrible way to learn to dance.
Most classes teach random, disconnected steps with no progression, no repetition, no muscle memory, and therefore no real progress or improvement.
That’s why most drop-in students stay stuck in "beginner hell" for years — they never learn the fundamentals they need to progress.
At Dance With Mark, our approach is different.
We use a carefully-designed, structured, progressive curriculum — a clear step-by-step path from beginner to advanced, with spaced repetition that builds deep muscle memory.
You’ll get to train at least twice per week, learn everything you need in the right order, and grow with a supportive community that progresses together.
This is why you'll become a confident, natural dancer for life — not just someone who knows a few random moves.

I’d been to drop‑in classes before and always left more confused.
Mark’s progressive program finally made dancing make sense.
Each class, week, and month builds on the last, so you retain the fundamentals and build real muscle memory and mastery.
The atmosphere is so welcoming – I made friends in my first week and look forward to every class.
If you think you have two left feet, trust me, Mark can fix that!
