Our story

Our lead instructor, Matt Coleman, has a wealth of dance experience. Starting out in ballroom, a chance encounter with line dancing while in America led him to this new passion.

Upon returning to Australia he started taking classes until a friend convinced him to start teaching online during the 2020 lockdowns. He now runs various classes and events across Melbourne. His unique teaching style and friendly demeanour see students coming from all around Melbourne and regional Victoria to attend his classes!

Our values

Aligned Dance takes pride in providing fun, welcoming, and inclusive classes. Everyone is welcome and all abilities are catered for.
