Another candle, another sweater they'll never wear. Give them something to do instead: a private lesson, or a few, with Alina, who has taught nervous beginners in Montreal since 2007. They pick the dance and the start date.

Birthday
Who it's for
For the friend turning 40 who swore this would be the year they learn salsa. For the parent who still talks about dancing at their own wedding. For the sibling with a bachata playlist and nobody to dance with. One to one, or as a couple with a partner: tell us when you call.
The gift is the plan
A birthday gift shouldn't need batteries or a gift receipt. Private lessons that are only about them: no class to keep up with, no strangers watching, just Alina and the music they love.
Even with two left feet
Think they can't dance? That's the point. Alina starts from step one and goes at their pace, in English, French or Russian.
No schedule to guess
You don't need to know their calendar. Once you've paid by Interac e-transfer or cash, we send the gift the same day, so it's ready for the party. Then they call or text Alina to pick a start date that suits them.
What they get
Private lessons with Alina, one or a few
One gift, kept simple: one private lesson or more, you choose how many. Priced the same as our regular private lessons. Call or text and we'll tell you the price.
One lesson or a few
One to one or as a couple, at their pace, from the very first step. Alina teaches every lesson herself.
The dance they love

Once you've paid by Interac e-transfer or cash, we send the gift that same day.
