Your First Dance by Bud Walters, Cincinnati OH

Bud has a system that will take you from nervous and uncertain amateurs to fairly comfortable dancing in front of others, in just three lessons. I couldn’t imagine feeling prepared to do this before we started, now it’s a part of the night I feel confident about. Personable guy and a great technical instructor!

Great wedding dance lessons, can’t recommend Bud enough! He was so patient with us when we don’t have a dancing bone in our bodies. Extremely helpful and affordable teaching us to look great on our wedding day in 3 lessons for only $85 each!

I’m glad I don’t need to learn to dance on a regular basis but working with Bud made me want to! He certainly helped my fiancé and I have a great time preparing for our first dance and made it more fun than I would have expected.

Bud Walter was a great instructor. With his instruction, our first dance went amazing. He helped build my confidence in the dance leading up to the wedding. I would highly recommend.

Amazing teacher- very helpful, incredibly experienced, knew exactly what we needed help with and how to explain it so it made sense to us in different ways with helpful examples. Also hilarious, all around great teacher, we had a great experience and feel prepared for our first dance!

My fiance and I have never danced before in our lives and you could say that we both are not talented naturally in that department.
However Bud made what we thought would be impossible, possible. Thanks to Bud he taught us a way to dance that makes it look like we've been doing it for so long and we only took 3 1-hour lessons!
If you have any doubt in your mind about taking dance lessons for your wedding, stop right there and listen to me. You will not regret it when you have Bud as your teacher! I enjoyed any and every moment with him guiding us and am so thankful to say that I had met him!

We had the best time learning from Bud and we feel so ready to dance together at our wedding! Bud made the lessons fun, interactive, and stress-free. He was kind, funny, and professional. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone getting married or wanting to learn how to dance with their partner! Can’t thank him enough for all his help!

What can I say about Bud Walters that hasn’t been said already? Perhaps that I not only consider him a great dance teacher, but also a personal idol. Bud’s enthusiasm, humor, and flair make for dance lessons that are as informative as they are unforgettable (though granted we did forget things, as Bud was quick to point out ;). I only wish we had the foresight to sign up for more than 3 lessons—my fiancé and I are major over thinkers and would have benefited from more time. But we learned lots of skills to practice!

We recently took our first dance lessons and were utterly amazed by the transformation! We began as complete novices, unsure of even the most basic steps. However, just 3 classes later, with Bud’s expert guidance, we quickly gained confidence and now feel comfortable dancing to any song. What sets Bud apart is his ability to teach a versatile skill, not just a choreographed routine for one specific track. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to have a nice first dance and not just the middle school sway.

I will highly recommend Bud Walters for as long as he continues to give dance lessons. He is amazing! Patient, funny, passionate, and very well educated in what he teaches. His studio is tucked away in his wonderful oasis that he is lucky enough to call his backyard. My fiance and I BOTH have two left feet, but somehow (with ease), Bud did the unthinkable and made us pros in no time at all. I was truly saddened at the end of our last session to know that we wouldn't be working with him anymore. He is just so great, I can't recommend him enough! Thank you so much Bud.

Bud is a fantastic instructor! He makes dancing very easy to understand and gives you the tools to come up with your own dance. After just two lessons I would’ve been confident to dance in front of everyone I knew at my wedding, even though I’d never danced at all before. He’s very fun to be around and very good at what he does. Well worth the time and money!

I highly recommend taking your dance lessons with Bud. He is an amazing person, very fun to work with and passionate about what he does. He has a very nice studio and is just a naturally comfortable man to be in the presence of. Cannot recommend him enough. He will make sure you have the foundation you need be dancing like pro in no time!

Thank you Bud, It was a pleasure!

We are so delighted that we found Bud! Your First Dance by Bud Walters is one of the best known secrets in the wedding community. Once you mention you're looking into having dance lessons EVERYONE mentions
Bud. We loved that his business thrives mostly on word of mouth, and that speaks a lot for a small business.
We enjoyed every session and nailed our first dance with confidence. Thank you Bud Walters!

Bud was so much fun to work with for our wedding. He went above and beyond at each of our lessons and made it so fun for us. We received more compliments on our first dance than you could imagine after our wedding and we highly recommend booking with Bud!

I'm late doing this, but our wedding was back in June and my husband, who has anxiety/stage fright, was very nervous. Not nervous to get married but nervous about having all eyes on him, especially for our first dance. We'd discuss taking lessons before and decided finally to do it. We had three lessons with Bud which gave us all the basics we needed for both of us to feel comfortable in front of our friends and family. We were also nervous to go to the lessons but Bud put us at ease immediately andgot us out of our heads. We both highly recommend taking lessons with Bud and call early, his schedule fills up quickly for a reason.

He lives up to the reputation, a joy to be around and his unique style is highly effective. We got hoots and applause for our dance. Never thought I would do that well but his style and a bit of hard work pay off.

Nobody could have prepared us better for our first dance like Bud. He is a gem of a human and we highly recommend learning to dance from him!

Bud was great! He made us feel much more confident doing our first dance after his lessons! Highly recommend him for any level of skill set in dancing!

Bud was the absolute best, he is very nice and stern when needed. We needed that, he is hilarious and will jump in to show you how to do it when necessary! Bud is a class act whether it’s dancing, acting or growing his backyard (must see!) he can do it all!

Happy early birthday Bud and thank you for taking the time to help make our upcoming day special!
