I go to relax and also learn a social skill. I love how she gives such personal attention to fit my needs

I've learned so much in such a short period of time (four months). My confidence has skyrocketed and I'm really excited about learning more. I've studied mostly salsa, bachata, hustle, and argentine tango. Her group classes are great, but the privates are where I learn the most. She doesn't sugarcoat my problems and weaknesses, but I still have fun in my lessons anyways and I always look forward to my lessons. Plan on sticking with her for a while!

I have taken around 7-8 lessons thus far and can say unequivocally that I have learned a great deal in a short amount of time. Her lessons are fun,informative especially as she stresses the importance of learning to dance in harmony with your partner. Would definitely recommend her.
