Some suggestions.

If you go there for dance lessons, go before a holiday. Dance schools often have a party before a holiday, and thus a higher chance to meet and talk to the owners.

If you take private lessons, say you are taking lessons for an upcoming wedding and a cruise.

If you take a private lesson and are male, you would likely take the lesson with the female employee. Maybe higher odds to get Gregoire if you take a group lesson or two.

They might be away on a trip for a week, you might want to stay 3 weeks in Ajaccio to make sure you see them. However, it could be costly, hotels in Ajaccio start at $73 a night, hostel with breakfast $37.

Avoid making a faux pas by talking about dancing, and have a list of good questions to ask about dancing. Maybe ask about thing like what are the best places to visit in Paris, general things. Small talk.

Something am not sure about. Should you call in advance to see if they will be there the week you would visit? Even this cannot guarantee they will be there because there might be a sickness, etc.
