About
I specialize in working with people at the very beginning of their dance journey. Absolutely no experience or "natural ability" is required - dance is for everyone!
I love seeing people gain confidence and shed their insecurities as they learn to dance.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We will begin by learning the basics of salsa & bachata rhythm, footwork and body movement, then move on to the elements of styling and musicality and learning how to incorporate your own personal style into your dancing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been teaching salsa & bachata at studios and clubs in the LA area for eight years. I have also studied ballet throughout my life, and still take both ballet and Latin dance classes for my own continued development.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
