Dear John and Julie:
Just wanted to thank you for being such terrific dance instructors
throughout our "Swing Dancing Sundays" at LeMont. The LeMont customers
really enjoyed
your classes and watching you dance.

Dear John and Julie:
I cannot begin to express the gratitude that is in my heart for
you helping us with the youth dance last Saturday evening. As
you well know, the dance was a
tremendous success. It is through positive events like these that
we are going to entice our young people back to church.
We had 108 youth at the dance themselves. And because of people
like you, our youth were provided with a safe and trouble free
environment. This is important
to our Lawrenceville Youth because so many of our kids are either
in troubled homes or at risk for some reason or another.
Thank you once again for answering God's call to help bring forth
His Kingdom here on earth, right here in Lawrenceville.
Peace and all good,
Fr. Michael P. Masich O.F.M. Cap.

"When my husband and I decided to be married
I knew the song that I wanted to dance was All My Life by Linda
Ronstat and Aaron Neville.
It took John about ten minutes to put together a beautiful set of
steps and moves to the song that were easy for my husband and I
to learn. The best part about it
was that even though the moves were simple, we dazzled the crowd
at our wedding and got loud, enthusiastic cheers!
It was so wonderful to have put the time into this because we have
such wonderful memories of our first dance together as a married
couple.
It is worth the effort. If you are engaged, don' t hesitate! Call
John for the most fun set of dance lessons you will ever have. He
is a talented guy! "

When planning our wedding my fiancee suggested that we take some
dance lessons. In fact she was very hopeful that we could incorporate
the lessons into a
choreographed dance routine to be performed as our wedding dance
at our reception. Not just a slow dance she wanted to do a swing
step! I was very skeptical
seeing as I am rhythmically impaired. Being apprehensive due to
the fact I had never taken any dance lessons before and afraid to
let my girlfriend down not to
mention embarrass myself in front of everyone I know, I agreed to
try.
John Buzilow came to her house to give us our first lesson. John
was very professional and patient with my lack of talent. The first
lesson was difficult for me but by
the second one I was starting to overcome some of my concerns and
actually enjoying and looking forward to practicing and our next
lesson, after a few weekly
lessons and John’s input we had a routine started and where
practicing and polishing.
We had about eight weekly lessons all just prior to our wedding,
talk about hectic, but it all work out very well. We not only performed
a choreographed wedding
dance but when we where introduced at our reception we walked directly
to the dance floor and performed a swing dance that John had also
choreographed.
Our wedding was beautiful beyond words. We received a lot of compliments
for our introduction dance. Thanks John and Julie for helping us
have a wedding
that not only my bride and I won’t forget but all or our guests
either.
Signed:
John Capp |
