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.

  • Thank you very much Steph for helping us perfect our wedding dance. Elizabeth and I really enjoyed our weekly lessons and were so happy with how much we learnt from our lessons. We are especially thankful given my very limited dancing experience before we commenced our lessons. Steph choreographed our wedding dance for us and is such a talented teacher. Highly recommend lessons from Steph before your wedding!

    I have been to some many different classes all over the world and i can definitely say that Sanuska’s class was more than perfect. Caroline was so professional and welcoming. What a duo ??♥️? They definitely make sure that everyone understands the concepts, musicality, culture and more... if you need some inspiration you must check these guys out. I walked out of their studio wanting more ? Thank you Sanu for sharing your knowledge with the world. It’s really hard to find instructors like you ??? Sincerely, Kiki Lopez-Espinal

    All three teachers were very nice and did a good job at choreographing and teaching us our wedding dance in four lessons. Sanushka was great at challenging us to do an easier version of the lift after we couldn't do the first version. Very happy with their services.

    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

  • 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 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.

    I'm a huge fan of social partnered dance. I've attended many dance schools over the years but this is the one school that I have intentionally travelled interstate visiting to improve the knowledge, connection and joy in my dance. More recently. with the outbreak of COVID, I have been able to take my lessons online and my achievements with them have exceeded my goals. The unique aspect of this school is that they tailor their approach to suit your individual learning style. I'm also a huge fan of the wedding dances that this school co-creates and enjoy seeing the success and joy online whenever they are published on social media.

    Without a doubt my favourite dance school in Melbourne! My wife and I have been students here for several years and also decided to ask Sanu to prepare a choreography for our wedding dance. The wedding dance went beyond our expectations and it is a moment we will never forget! Sanu and Caroline have an outstanding attention to details and their teaching style is impeccable: logical, clear, passionate. All the teachers at The Secret Garden are very professional but at the same time the classes are fun and energetic. I highly recommend trying their Cuban salsa class, you won’t be disappointed!
