Dance champion and Strictly star Amy Dowden is on a mission to help people who'd love to dance, but have never done so, learn a spectacular routine to surprise family and friends. Amy becomes their personal dance coach, from choreographing and teaching a special routine to adding costume, hair and make-up, all for a showstopping performance no one will forget.

First to get Amy's professional dance training is Sian, a grandmother-of-four who had her dreams crushed as a girl when she was told by everyone around her she'd never dance.
