Frequently asked questions

The first lesson is really about getting to know the student and  their abilities to learn and how they learn. I would evaluate where they are as far as dancing is concerned and where they want to go - the goals and benefits they need to achieve. Some are doing it for a wedding, preparing for a cruise, competition or just to enhance their lifestyle.

Most important outcome is to make sure the students feel comfortable and confident with me as  their teacher to continue and take the next step. 

I have been a full-time dance teacher for over 25 years.  I am trained in all styles of ballroom and Latin dancing. I work with juniors, seniors, singles and couples.

I started out as a competitive gymnast when I was younger and through high school.  The skills that I acquired help me further my dance training. In 1994 I got into ballroom dancing so I could compete, perform and teach in which 2005 I opened up Fred Astaire  Dance studios in Jacksonville and Jacksonville Beaches. 

I have worked with juniors, teenagers, professional athletes, singles couples, and even large groups and add business conventions. 

I was recently a judge at Jacksonville's, "Dancing With The Stars " fundraising event.

It's very important to at least give yourself and the teacher a chance to get to know how you learn and how they teach. Some students can take a  several months of dance training and or coaching with one teacher, yet when they try out another teacher they could learn just as much if not more in a few weeks. A student should make sure the teacher has not only dance experience but more importantly professional teaching experience that has actually been professionally trained to teach. This can help save you time and money and get you to becoming the kind of dancer you want to be in a much faster pace. The environment of a dance class is also crucial to your  during your dance instruction. Having proper shoes also helps depending on how involved you want to get into your dancing.
