About Dance With Panache

Uttara Vaidya

Owner

As a professional Latin and Ballroom dancer, I love helping couples create a first dance that feels personal and unforgettable. For me, it is never just about the steps but about the connection, laughter, and little moments you share while learning. I know wedding planning can feel overwhelming, so I make lessons fun, easy, and stress-free. Whether you imagine something classic and romantic, playful and upbeat, or uniquely your own, I will guide you in a way that feels natural. The best part is seeing your faces light up when it all comes together. đź’ś

What sets me apart is my unique journey. I transitioned from being a software engineer to following my true passion for dance, which allows me to bring both creativity and structure to the way I teach. I understand that every couple learns differently, and I take pride in creating a space where you feel comfortable, supported, and genuinely excited about your first dance. For me, it is never just about choreography but about capturing your personalities and turning your vision into a joyful memory you will cherish forever.

In three words: Calm, Nurturing, Positive

    We had an incredible experience working with Uttara at Dancing with Panache! She brought such great energy to every session and was extremely helpful in creating a truly show stopping first dance for our wedding. Uttara has a wonderful way of making dance approachable and comfortable, no matter how much or how little experience you have. She made the entire process fun, stress-free, and gave us the confidence to shine on our big day. We couldn’t have asked for a better teacher and highly recommend her to anyone looking to make their first dance unforgettable!

    Planning a wedding can be stressful, but finding Panche has been one of the very best (and honestly, most fun) parts of the process! As a ballerina, I already had training in ballet, but ballroom dancing was a whole new world for me. I originally thought I could choreograph a dance myself for my fiancé and me, but all that did was cause arguments and frustration. That’s when I found Panche online and decided to give her a try, and I am SO glad I did. She is not only incredibly talented and knowledgeable, but she makes every single class fun and enjoyable. She has such a gift for teaching, not just to someone like me with dance experience, but also to my fiancé, who (as he admits!) has two left feet. Somehow, she makes him feel comfortable, confident, and excited about learning, which is something I didn’t think was possible! On top of her amazing teaching, I absolutely love her location and the vibe of her studio. It’s warm, welcoming, and full of energy. She also offers such fun group classes outside of the personalized wedding sessions, which makes the whole experience even better. If you’re looking for someone who can make learning to dance together not only stress-free but truly one of the highlights of wedding planning, I cannot recommend Panche enough. She turned something that could have been a headache into one of our favorite memories leading up to the big day.

I love how open and fun you are in every lesson and watching your fiancé grow more confident and excited with each step has been such a highlight for me! It makes me so happy that your dance has become a fun and meaningful part of your wedding planning. I am truly grateful you found me and I cannot wait to see your special moment come to life on the big day! 🙏🏽 -Uttara
