Cindy & Chris dip studio.JPGChris & Cindy Nguyen Mader client.JPGI know when we left your studio, you made a believer out of Chris.  However, the true test was the day of our wedding.  Needless to say, our dance was a hit. Your suggestion of entering the Julia Morgan Ballroom and leading into our first dance was pure genius!  The crowd was energized and our song worked out perfectly.

And as you suggested, we told our photographer that we will dip in the beginning and kiss at the end and they were there to capture the moment.
 
Thank you so much for your skill and talent.  If you have other non-believers out there, tell them about us.  You gave us the basics and we were able to entertain and "wow" our guests.  Thank you for making our wedding memorable and fun!    Cindy and Chris

You were fantastic!  Andy and I really enjoyed your company and dance instructions.  We had such a great time, and I am so proud of Andy for doing so well.  Now it is time for us to dance (practice) so we can shine on the wedding day.  Thank you for the recap of instructions.  I will also let Adrian's parents know how wonderful you are and advise them to take lessons with you.  I would like for all of us to look good on Candice's wedding day and surprise everyone with our foot work!

Thank you so much for the dance lesson you gave Jon and me, and also the group lesson with our wedding party.  It was honestly the best thing we did for our wedding reception!   My dad was so appreciative, he said it was the first time in his entire life that he actually felt like he could dance.  It was truly a wonderful evening, thanks to the energetic instruction you gave us.  It's a gift that keeps giving!  We're finding all kinds of places to dance around the world!!

Wendy and I had an absolute blast.  What we learned today we'll enjoy for a lifetime.  We'll be practicing hard these next two weeks to fine tune things.

Thank you so much for the fun photos and the incredibly thorough cheat sheet that will come in very handy.  I came home gleaming and so excited and immediately wanted to practice in our tiny one bedroom apartment.  For the first time in my life I am excited to dance and to show all those doubters that I “got it”. .  thank you, yes, it is a true gift!
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

We want to thank you for a wonderful dance lesson.  We feel more ready for our "first dance" in the public eye and are confident, that no matter what, we'll look good trying.  What I apprecated most is your enthusiasm for the art of dance and your quick and easy dance tips.  It certainly surpassed all of the other lessons we've
had.  Thanks again Cynthia, it was a wonderful experience on many levels.

Your style is very genuine, approachable - certainly explains why the famous and the not-so seek your counsel on this kind of thing.

Ron and I had an absolute blast at our lesson and thoroughly enjoyed you and your teaching style.  Ron is looking forward to practicing and the actual dance on the Big Day!  And we even practiced (albeit briefly) the cuddle snap maneuver this morning before heading off to work.  It was truly a pleasure and we thank you for all your suggestions and positive energy and expertise.
Warmly, Biz

Thanks so much. We had a great time last Sunday.  Dave and I even practiced a bit last night on the BART platform--of all places.  What better way to pass the time while waiting for a train.

Your lesson to us was fantastic and your lesson to the group was exactly what the wedding needed.  It couldn't have worked out more perfectly.  Thanks again for everything, our wedding would not have been the same without you.

 In June of 2008, I had the honor of guiding and assisting Bill (age 88) and his new bride, Edna (age 90) onto the dance for their first dance.

After being confined to a wheel chair for five years, Edna dreamed of dancing again.  After meeting and falling in love with Bill, a student of Cynthia Glinka’s, Edna vowed to dance again.  For three months Bill and Edna worked with Cynthia and a physical therapist to prepare Edna for her long awaited dance. The couple took to the dance floor at their wedding reception with Cynthia in the wings.


The three month preparation for this special moment was captured on film by Gatlin Photography and will be released as a short documentary film, coming soon to film festivals in California.

I wanted to drop you a line to let you know how wonderful Lauren and Brandon's first dance was. It was so beautiful, and yes I cried in pleasure.  So many people commented about how impressed they were with how Brandon presented her. Not only did we have a fun evening together learning to dance, and the wedding dancing was beautiful, Lauren and Brandon had fun dancing on their Honeymoon and will remember your instruction forever.

Thanks again, Lynda

It was a wonderful experience and we're so grateful to you for your support, enthusiasm, and world class teaching. Thank you for making this happen for us. It was wonderful and we are very appreciative.
