9/10 dance lesson almost there

We were introduced to Access Ballroom via my sister and cousin from the bridal show. We went for a trial lesson and decided we could benefit from some lessons. We are now on 9/10 dance lesson in preparation for our first dance for our wedding. It has been both challenging but exciting. Both my fiancé and I are beginners so we had a lot to learn but both Sky and Gil has taught us a lot. The instructors are both knowledgeable and patient (taking their time to identify areas of improvement) and assisting with cleaning up specific dance moves/technicalities. I highly recommend this dance studio if you're looking to learn to dance.

Thank you to the team at Access Ballroom!

My fiancé Marcus and I have been taking private dance lessons at Access Ballroom to prepare for our first dance, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience so far. We’re learning a waltz, and as two people with no formal dance background—especially Marcus, who isn’t as familiar with music and has found it challenging at times to catch the beat—we were a little nervous going in.

Thankfully, our instructor Gil has been absolutely incredible. He’s patient, encouraging, and has a great way of breaking things down to make each step easy to understand. One thing we really appreciated is that Gil had us practice to a recording of our actual wedding band playing our song, which made a huge difference in helping us feel comfortable and confident dancing to the real thing. We highly recommend Access Ballroom to any couple looking to learn something special for their wedding!

Best Wedding Decision Ever

My fiancé and I have been taking dance lessons with Sky for our wedding, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! We first came across Access Ballroom at Canada’s Bridal Show in 2024, and it turned out to be one of the best discoveries of our wedding planning journey. We weren’t sure if we wanted a choreographed dance at first, but we decided to give the free class a shot as a fun date night. Eight months, ten lessons, and countless lifts, dips, and glides later we couldn't be happier that we did.

Sky is an incredible instructor who truly goes above and beyond to help us feel comfortable and confident on the dance floor. She breaks down every step in a way that’s easy to follow while making the whole experience fun and enjoyable. Her enthusiasm and patience have really challenged us to grow, and we’ve picked up skills we never imagined we could! If you’re looking for a fantastic place to learn ballroom dance and have an unforgettable time, Access Ballroom is the perfect choice!

One of the best decisions!!

We discovered Access Ballroom at Canada’s Bridal Show in 2024, and let me say, it was one of the best finds of our wedding planning journey! Initially unsure about having a choreographed dance, we decided to take the free class offered as a fun date night. From the moment we stepped into the studio, we knew we were in for something special.

Our instructor, Sky, is simply fantastic! Her energy and passion for dance made our first lesson an absolute joy. She quickly put us at ease and tailored our experience to suit our needs perfectly. By the end of that first class, we were sold!

Signing up for lessons turned out to be one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding process. We've had an incredible time learning and laughing together as we challenge ourselves. Each lesson has brought us closer, and we are beyond excited to surprise our guests with our amazing routine filled with all the lifts we've practiced tirelessly over the past year.

If you’re contemplating dance lessons, especially for a wedding, do yourself a favour and check out Access Ballroom! You won't regret it! Thank you, Sky and the Access Ballroom team, for making our wedding journey so memorable!

An Incredible Experience Preparing for Our Wedding Dance at Access Ballroom!

My fiancée and I discovered Access Ballroom at Canada’s Bridal Show, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. From our very first class, we were impressed by the warmth and expertise of the instructors and the welcoming atmosphere of the studio.

Sky Pahl has been an absolute gem, choreographing our first dance for our wedding. Despite our chosen song not being ideal for the style of dance we envisioned, Sky’s flexibility and creativity helped us create a routine that beautifully blends the elegance of the Viennese Waltz with the music we love. What made the experience even more special was that my fiancée's mom and aunt had choreographed some sequences prior to our classes, and the studio was happy to include their contributions in our dance. They offered valuable feedback and improvements, seamlessly incorporating these moments into our routine.

The entire studio has been incredibly supportive, offering guidance and encouragement every step of the way. We’ve also been enjoying the group classes, which have made learning different dance styles so much fun for us as beginners. A bonus is having the opportunity to use the space to practice our first dance—it’s been such a valuable resource!

We’re so grateful to Access Ballroom for making this part of our wedding preparation so special. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fantastic dance studio!

I have over 20 years of dancing and teaching experience. At a very young age, I've learned that I had an affinity to teach and help people grow. If I teach you for long enough, I will “coach” you into believing in yourself and knowing you can achieve anything. I look forward to sharing my passion for Latin and Ballroom dancing with all of you.

Dancing has been part of my life for over 10 years. I've had the pleasure to teach at various dance schools in Canada and Russia for more than 7 years. Started off as a hip hop dancer, I then discovered a passion for Latin/Ballroom and pole dance styles. What I love the most about teaching is helping my students grow, gain confidence and express themselves through dance.
