What People Say

From first-time students and wedding couples alike

"I signed up convinced I had two left feet. Three lessons in, I was two-stepping around the dance hall like I'd been doing it for years. Nolan makes it feel easy and never once made me feel silly for messing up."

Daniel | Austin, TX

"I was TERRIFIED of our first dance. Nolan made every lesson feel low-pressure and actually fun. By our wedding day, I was excited to dance. Our guests kept asking where we learned to move like that. Honestly, best money we spent."

Meet Nolan

Hi, I'm Nolan Wayne, a professional dancer and instructor based in Austin. I danced in Dancing with the Stars Austin, but these days I spend most of my time teaching, and there's nothing I like better than watching someone who swore they "can't dance" finally have it click.

I specialize in beginners. If you've never taken a lesson in your life, you're exactly who I built this for. I break every move down into simple, manageable steps and keep things low-pressure and genuinely fun, whether we're working on your wedding first dance or your very first Ballroom, Country, or Swing lesson.

Everyone has their own reason to dance, and I'm proud to teach all of my students with patience and zero judgment, regardless of gender or orientation. Let's find yours.
