Zeke and Pamela both studied at UW-Madison where they fell in love with both each other and the world of ballroom dancing. During their time at Madison they began teaching and competing professionally as members of the National Dance Council of America. Zeke is originally from Chicago, but Zeke and Pamela moved back to the Fox Valley (where Pamela grew up) back in 2011. It was here that they opened Boogie Ballroom with the desire to bring a fun, easy-going dance experience to everyone that walked through its doors. Zeke and Pamela currently work with students across a wide range of ages and dance experiences. They've had the privilege of watching their students' love for dancing grow as they learn at a pace that's comfortable for them. There's no greater joy than hearing a student tell them how much dance has changed their life for the better.
Zeke and Pamela love sharing their story of how their ballroom dance journey began. They knew nothing of the ballroom dance world until their final year of college, yet here they are learning and growing and sharing their passion for dance every day (and somehow even ended up with their own studio to do it with). There is no perfect age to begin dancing except now. Everyone can learn so if the desire is there don't let fear hold you back. Zeke and Pamela's number one goal of the studio is to create a fun, encouraging atmostphere that is filled with laughter and memories.

Maddy is a second-year student at Lawrence University pursuing a business major with a dance minor. She has been dancing since childhood and has performed in both studio settings and on her high school and college teams - always finding a way to keep moving.
When she's not dancing, you'll often find Maddy behind the camera running her photography business, studying in a cozy coffee shop, or creating new improv pieces in the studio. If Maddy were a dance move, she'd be a mob dance break - random, unexpected, and full of energy.
Rebekah discovered her love for ballroom dance at a young age while watching Dancing with the Stars. Captivated by the artistry of ballroom, she knew it was something she wanted to pursue. Her dance journey started with training in ballet, jazz, and tap. Her background in multiple dance styles has given her a deep appreciation for movement, musicality, and self-expression.
What Rebekah loves most about dance is its ability to tell a story and connect people through movement. She enjoys the challenging, technical aspects and variety that ballroom offers while also embracing the freedom of expressing herself through music. She believes partner dancing teaches valuable skills that extend beyond the dance floor, fostering communication and connection. As an instructor, Rebekah loves helping students experience those exciting “aha” moments when a movement finally clicks and watching them discover the same joy in dance that she has found. She believes that performance, whether through dance, film, music, sports, or other creative pursuits, is a universal language that brings people together through expression and impact.
Beyond dance, Rebekah has a deep appreciation for film, music, arts, and nature. Outside the studio, she enjoys spending time in the gym, exploring nature, helping animal rescues, and learning about history, wellness, and philosophy. Rebekah also loves spending time with her family and her puggle, Ike, and making memories together.
