A wedding dance that feels like you — elegant, memorable, and realistic to learn before the big day.

Flexible scheduling — your wedding, your timeline

When can you fit it in?

No two couples have the same schedule. Jacki works around your life — whether you've got months to prepare or just days to go.

📅

One lesson per week

The most relaxed approach. Spread your sessions over several weeks, with time to practise between each one. Ideal if your wedding is 4–8 weeks away.

⚡

One lesson per day

A focused burst over consecutive days. Great for couples who want to immerse quickly and lock in the choreography in under two weeks.

🔥

All in one day

The intensive option — complete all your sessions in a single day or weekend. Surprisingly effective and perfect for busy couples with limited windows.

🚨

Last minute?

Wedding coming up fast? It might still be possible. Jacki has worked with couples just days before the big day. Enquire now and she'll do her best.

Learn. Practise. Shine.

Option A

Professional Studio

Mirrors, dance floor, Jacki guiding every step. Build real confidence in a proper dance environment.

Option B

In Your Own Home

The teacher who makes everyone fall in love with dancing.

"I've never met someone who truly can't dance. I've only met people who haven't been taught the right way yet."

Jacki Valk is an award-winning competitive dancer with over 27 years of teaching experience, who has trained and performed alongside cast members of Dancing with the Stars, competed as a National Runner-Up in salsa, and danced her way through 13+ countries around the world.

But what truly sets Jacki apart isn't her credentials — it's the way she teaches. She spent years studying the psychology behind how different personalities learn and move, which means every lesson is built around exactly how you and your partner absorb information best. Visual learner? Kinetic? Last-minute crammer? Jacki has taught every kind of person, and she adapts completely to you.

She's taught business owners, famous athletes, celebrities and complete beginners who swore they had two left feet. Every single one of them walked onto that dance floor and felt something they didn't expect: joy.

Now based on the beautiful Sunshine Coast at Pelican Waters, Jacki brings that world-class experience directly to couples preparing for the most important dance of their lives.

How Jacki teaches

The philosophy behind every lesson

🧠

Psychology-led teaching

Jacki trained in the psychology of movement and learning. She identifies how you and your partner absorb information — visual, kinetic, verbal — and teaches in exactly that way. No one-size-fits-all approach here.

💃

Choreography that fits you

Every choreography is built from scratch around your unique personalities, body types, song and comfort level. Jacki never uses templates. Your dance will feel completely natural because it was designed specifically for you.

🕊️

Zero pressure, pure joy

Jacki creates a space where nervous beginners feel safe, capable and genuinely excited. Every session builds confidence — not just in dancing, but in each other. By the wedding day, you won't just be ready. You'll be excited.
