PETER JONES
I've been teaching couples how to dance, simple first dance steps for their wedding since the 1997; last year I passed 22,000 dancers!
BallroomWeddingDance, a boutique dance studio dedicated solely to helping you create your First Dance.
Personal attention, a memorably elegant/ sensual/ ROMANTIC dance, comfortably, at your own pace.
Your First dance is such a special moment for you!

I coached Tony award winning Patina Miller, worked with Kenneth Cole and his daughter, invited to help Tracy Morgan with his first dance, and taught Lara and a certain ex-President's son with theirs!

About Peter & Our values

I came to NYC as an actor, worked A LOT, but life as an actor is .... every job ends, sooner rather than later, and you're unemployed again!
The end of one show resulted in the choreographer asking if I wanted to work at his studio.
I discovered I really loved working with people just starting out/beginners, and when I went out on my own decided I wanted to work with wedding couples. Its such an amazing time in your lives, preparing for that incredible, memorable day!
Your wedding is the most important day of your life and I love sharing a small part of it. Joy-filled, preparing for it is challenging, right? Let me make the learning-how-to-dance part a fun, romantic time-out from the whole stressful year or so. Make it a date night!

I've carefully picked my team If I can't work with you myself, each has unique skills and style, and they are amazing.

Danced with/taught Rosanna Scotto on Good Day, NY

I am proud my wife was Black Lives Matter's first National Managing Director

Most important, of course there must be coffee! (I don't mind it ends up cold/room temperature while I do a lesson)

Unusual fact: I'm absolutely fascinated by quantum mechanics (Well, isn't everybody? But entangled particles freak me out...)

I've taught all over the world: London, Dublin, Paris, Nice, DC and NYC
I got married in the Bahamas myself (It was as you might expect - incredible!)

Same sex/cis gender/old-fashioned boy meets grl and one thing leads to another: now there's a wedding for everybody!

I did actually have a great time teaching Eric & Lara Trump for their Big Day (Trivia alert: they danced to Toto's "Africa" as their honeymoon was a South African safari.)
