Malachi Spaulding trained at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance and Ballet Rambert, and is a former member of the renowned African dance company Irie Dance Theatre. He's danced in The Lion King, at the Vienna Festival Ballet and in music videos for Jamiroquai.
Malachi has taught many styles of dance to all abilities, but especially enjoys taking couples through that first dance on their wedding day.
"When you take the floor for the first dance at your wedding reception, all eyes are on you," he explains. "I help couples create a dance routine that they and their guests will never forget."
It's not just about a waltz or foxtrot, either. "Unusual requests such as famous movie or MTV routines, eg. Dirty Dancing, Saturday Night Fever, Thriller etc. are fine," Malachi says, "provided you have plenty of time before the wedding for extra lessons and LOTS of practice! I recommend at least six months of tuition for the Dirty Dancing routine."
