Why I started dancing/history?
I first began dancing around 6-7 years ago, I joined my school Chinese and Korean modern dance group and loved dancing to Kpop and Hip Hop, from there I started my own Kpop dance classes in 2013 under "Mitch's Kpop Dance Classes" as I was passionate about Kpop and there was pretty big demand. In 2016 it started to become more popular and some of my students created a small Kpop crew called "MDC". More recently I have moved into Urban Dance, and have joined a local crew here in Sydney called GVNG. Now I am pursuing dance as a full time career teaching private classes to students and teaching at various schools and studios around Sydney.

Mitchell used great music and was well prepared. He is very welcoming and encouraging for beginners and those with experience.
Glyn Hornbuckle
Mitchell was awesome and very patient! We used this session as a team building exercise and the team absolutely loved coming together in a fun environment. Mitch even provided a recording of the fun and he was very efficient with all our communications. Really great session highly recommended to all who want to bring their teams together in a lighthearted way!
Michelle Plant
Well Done Mitch on the session you ran for our local library members via Zoom. Your instructions and choreography were easy to follow, allowing for a fun session for people of all ages and abilities. On the day, we did experience issues with sound delays upon music replay, possibly with the camera/internet upload speed, but you worked well around this. Now every time I hear that song, I've got actions to follow. Thanks once again!

Mitch was fantastic! We changed the brief on Mitch at short notice and he was able to quickly adapt to what we wanted and delivered an excellent fun event for our corporate virtual drinks with senior leaders at Dell EMC.
Mitch had excellent communication with us leading up to the event also.
Thanks again Mitch, we would definitely use you again!
Ethan Ding
Mitchell was amazing! He picked perfect dance routine for our level and gave us step by step instruction. I would highly recommend anyone to give it a go. It was a fun experience :)
Emma Eldridge
Mitch was a great teacher who broke down the steps into manageable chunks. He took it at my pace and was able to modify the dance until I was comfortable with the movements. The place was easy to find and Mitch was great with answering any questions I had. It was super fun!
Dennis Lee
It was fun & enjoyable lessons with Mitchell. As i am absolute beginner, he tailored to what i need and created an routine that made me feel confident and a bad ass in dancing. Highly recommend giving him a go!
Jet Yew
I booked 2 hour dance lesson with Mitchell. He is very nice, patient and professional. The place is easily found. He thought us step by step and adjust the dance move based on our experience level. I will recommend Mitchell’s classes.

It was ages ago since I last danced and now I am finally back to dancing. Mitchell was such a great and fun teacher; he was able to patiently teach me the step by step dance moves that I have always wanted to learn from a particular Kpop boyband. As a result, I was able to nail my first few moves well - thanks to him! The venue for dance practice was also really comfortable so I enjoyed being there for one hour. I would love to join another dance class soon - it was a good value for money as well.
