Complimentary lesson

(C) The Secret Garden of Dance

1

The first step is to book in a complimentary and obligation-free consultation. You’ll be looked after by one of our highly trained and friendly teachers, who will inform you of all the additional services we have to offer.

2

Each couple is different, so it’s important for us to discuss your specific ideas in detail and learn about what you’re both hoping to achieve. This will help us determine which style of dance and choreography will best suit you. 

3

During this free one hour dance lesson, we’ll also teach you some basic steps to your choice of song, which will help you get a sense of what your dance could look and feel like. 

4

Finally to finish your consultation, we can give you feedback and advice with regards to pricing, packages, how many lessons you may require and to make a booking if you wish.

  • I have attended 4 or 5 workshops with Sanu and am always left feeling inspired by his passion and skill. He and Caroline make a great team. Highly recommend.

    The instructors here are very passionate about the style they teach. It feels like they want to train people to be good dancers and take the artform forward, rather than just running a dance school. A good student-teacher ratio and modest fee structure made this studio my favourite among many others that I have already attended in the area.

    My Fiance and I had absolute no clue about dancing. Aiming at performing a dance for our wedding , Sanushka lead us step by step. He managed to bring out the beat in us we never even knew existed. More than learning a dance that will stay with us forever, we also had a great time laughing and just having a blast at every session. Thanks Sanushka. Keep at it !!! You are a pro indeed

    I began my journey with Secret Garden of Dance during Melbourne's 2020 lock-down. With no previous dance experience, I was determined to learn Michael Jackson's Dangerous performance. Sanu's passion for teaching (and MJ) allowed me to exceed my initial expectations (see our video on youtube). Sanu and Caroline's commitment and passion for dance fosters a warm environment for their students to realize their potential. I highly recommend Secret Garden of Dance for those who want try something new, those who are fans of MJ or Afro-Cuban/Salsa.

  • Sanushka is a fantastic teacher. His personable attitude, ability to make you feel comfortable, along side his vast knowledge of dance has made working with him on improving my dancing such great fun.

    My husband and I learned our first dance for our wedding at The Secret Garden of Dance. We left it quite late to start (we took our first lesson 2 weeks before the big day) and still Sanu managed to teach us a waltz (including a lunge, Cuban walk, zig zag and dip). He really cared about us and explained both the moves and enough of the history and philosophy for us to understand the dance. The big day turned out great and the crowd was impressed (particularly since I hadn’t previously been much of a dancer!). We highly recommend Sanu and The Secret Garden of Dance to anyone looking to learn to dance for a wedding or anything else.

    My new hubby & I can’t recommend the team at The Secret Garden of Dance highly enough! The studio is a hidden gem and a pleasure to learn in. Over 2 months, Caroline took us from complete beginners to confident, enthusiastic performers for our first dance on our wedding night. We couldn’t have asked for a more patient, committed teacher. From the very first meeting, where Caroline took the time to get to know us and our somewhat alternative vision for our dance, to developing an awesome choreography that blew our friends and family away, the wedding dance was a clear highlight and an unforgettable element of the whole day. We are SO glad we decided to take lessons, and put in the hours of practice, and we are grateful for the contributions of the whole team, who took the time to watch us rehearse and share their tips to elevate our performance. Can’t wait to return to the studio to take more classes! Couples looking to learn a wedding dance, look no further 😊

    We first found out about The Secret Garden of Dance through my sister who had registered us for a trial class ahead of our wedding. My husband and I both enjoy dancing socially, but had not had previous experience with learning a choreographed routine. Caroline made us feel welcome and took the time out to get to know us as a couple and thoughtfully crafted a routine for us which we will think back on fondly for years to come. Caroline was patient, professional, articulate and very concise with how she taught us. Instead of rushing into learning the full choreography, she iterated the importance of nailing the basics first and spent time with us till we got it right. Going to classes every week for the 6 weeks in the lead up to our wedding, was something we both eagerly anticipated, and helped us not only learn a new skill, but helped us grow closer together as a couple. Everyone loved our first dance and were totally taken by surprise by our moves! Thank you Caroline - you helped make our wedding feel extra special and unforgettable for us xxx
