Monika is very talented in overall teaching and coaching of students in various dance routines and moves. Initially I did not really catch onto dancing but have now taken a good interest in dances that I would not have done before. She is well versed and knows how to bring together a class, but at the same time give individual attention to each and everyone of her students. Monika knows and sees all so can’t just go through the motions. She seriously wants to make one a better dancer and makes the classes fun whether it’s group or private. Great instructor all around.

I love love love my classes with Tania! Not only does she challenge and inspire us with her dynamic and fun choreography, but she really creates a sense of community and encouragement! Her classes are perfectly appropriate and fun for super beginners to professionals. She has given me many gifts as a dancer and I know that many others feel the same way.

When I first started taking classes I was reserved and not used to moving my body. My shoulders were up by my ears. Each week I would peel back another layer grow more confident in my dance moves. The space is a place of healing, sisterhood and positivity! Isabel is a phenomenal instructor she breaks down every move in great detail and shares the history of samba! Come join us!
