If Dancing Feels Awkward, You're in the Right Place.

We help beginners who avoid dance floors gain confidence, rhythm, and natural movement—without complicated choreography or years of training.

Right now, you avoid dancing because:
❌ You feel stiff and awkward the second you step onto the floor.
❌ You don’t know how to move naturally without looking ridiculous.
❌ You’ve convinced yourself you just "don’t have rhythm."

You don’t need “talent” to dance.

You just need a system that makes movement feel simple, natural, and stress-free.

Deep Down...

You Wish You Could Just Say Yes.

You tell yourself it’s not a big deal. You don’t need to dance. It’s not your thing.

But the truth that you don’t want to say out loud?
You wish it was.

Because deep down…

  • You envy the people who look so free when the music starts.
  • You hate how you overthink every move instead of just moving.
  • You wish you could just shut off that voice in your head saying, “You’re doing it wrong.”

It’s not just the steps. It’s the fear of looking stupid.
It’s the fear of judgment.
It’s the fear that you’ll try… and it still won’t be enough.

So you do what’s safe: You sit. You watch. You wait.
And every time you do, the belief that you can’t dance gets stronger.

It’s not just about the dance floor.
It’s about what happens when you start avoiding things you wish you could enjoy.

And that’s the real problem.

Mission

Ambitiously Average Studio empowers everyday people to dance with confidence in any social setting. We break down movement into simple, accessible fundamentals, removing overthinking and fear so dance becomes second nature.

What we do?

At Ambitiously Average Studio, we teach real people how to move with confidence in real-world social settings.

We’re a mobile private dance coaching studio, which means we come to a studio near you—or wherever you're most comfortable training. No big mirrors, no pressure-filled classrooms, just practical guidance that meets you where you are (literally and figuratively).

✔️ Private coaching, wherever you are most at ease—studio, home, or private space
✔️ Step-by-step training focused on control, groove, and musical connection
✔️ Moves you can actually use at weddings, parties, nights out, and real life

You Don’t Need to Be Perfect— but Better.

The problem was never your body. It was never your rhythm. It was never your ability.

It was not knowing where to start.

That’s where we come in.

  • We make dancing simple. No routines to memorize, no choreography to struggle through. Just fundamental movements that work anywhere.
  • We remove the overthinking. You’ll learn a repeatable system so your body moves naturally—without second-guessing every step.
  • We build confidence first, skills second. Because the best dancers aren’t the ones with the best moves—they’re the ones who actually get on the floor.

This isn’t a theory.

I’ve coached over 500 students, across 5 countries, with more than 1,000 hours of hands-on training. And they all started where you are—hesitant, unsure, stuck on the sidelines. Now? They step onto the dance floor without a second thought.

You don’t need years of practice. You don’t need natural rhythm.
You just need a simple, effective way to start.

And that’s what we teach at Ambitiously Average Studios.

Bijan "BJ" Bio Picture

Bijan "BJ" Thomas

Founder | Lead Groove Specialist

For over 20 years, I’ve been on a journey with dance—one that started with hesitation, self-doubt, and countless moments of watching from the sidelines. I wasn’t born with natural rhythm, and for a long time, I believed that dancing just wasn’t for me.

But I wanted to move with confidence. I wanted to step onto a dance floor without overthinking every step or worrying about how I looked. So, I dedicated myself to learning. I started with the basics—trying every social dance trend from the Electric Slide to Crank That. Then, I discovered partner dancing, and it changed everything.

Through Bachata, Kizomba, and other social dance styles, I learned that dance isn’t about choreography—it’s about feeling comfortable in your movement. I spent years breaking down dance into its simplest, most effective elements, so that anyone—whether they’re 9 or 90—could feel at home on the dance floor.

With 1,000+ hours of coaching and over 500 students across 5 countries, I built Ambitiously Average Studios to give people what I wish I had when I started: a practical, structured system that removes the fear and awkwardness from dancing and replaces it with confidence, ease, and enjoyment.

My goal?

To help you feel good dancing—at weddings, parties, or even a random Sunday brunch. No pressure. No complicated routines. Just movement that feels natural.
