About

I have been teaching music and dance for more than 25 years. I am available for both in person and remote/zoom lessons. I teach in an upbeat style, and I'm flexible on teaching schedules. For music, I teach piano, guitar, drums, bass and voice. For dance, I teach ballroom (waltz, jitterbug, foxtrot, tango, cha-cha, etc) line dancing and beginner tap. I love helping students learn and my goal is to inspire them and enrich their lives through music and dance.

One of the things I love most about teaching is it's often the culmination of a lifelong dream for my students who "always wanted to learn." For younger students, it's often the beginning of inspiration for a lifetime of music or dancing.

    Dean Kline has had a big impact on my sons life. Marshall started taking guitar lessons from Mr. Dean in 5th grade. In middle school, Marshall joined one of Mr. Deans bands, a praise band. They practiced once a month and performed a few times during the year. Marshall looked forward to every practice and enjoyed spending time with his new friends.
    After learning to play guitar, Marshall took bass lessons from Mr. Dean. Marshall joined the praise band at school and continued to play guitar or bass until he graduated. He is a sophomore in college and plays in the praise band on chapel days, at Disciple Now Events and youth camps.
    Both of our boys attended Cotillion and enjoyed it. They learned etiquette, dances, cell phone etiquette, made new friends and had fun at each class. Mr. Dean is organized and relates well to kids.
    Mr. Dean also taught a group dance lesson at my daughters 16th birthday party. She gave him a list of songs that she liked. He talked the list over with me. He taught them several line dances at the party and it was a blast!
    One of the things I most appreciate about Dean is that he is a gate keeper. There are a lot of great songs with lyrics that are not appropriate for kids. He was able to give Marshall a great foundation in music, introduce him to genres and artists but I didnt worry about the lyrics because I knew Dean was also protecting his heart and mind.
    5 stars are not enough! I highly recommend Mr. Dean as your childs music or cotillion teacher.

    Mr. Dean has been a pleasure to work with! He’s an amazing and very knowledgeable music instructor. Our daughter has been taking piano lessons with him via Zoom for the past year and has improved significantly. She’s always enthusiastic and ready for her next lesson!

    Mr. Dean is a kind and patient teacher who always has a smile on his face. He tailored his lessons to fit my sons goals and he was always very encouraging and supportive. My son says, Mr. Dean is a great teacher and one of the nicest people Ive ever met.

    Mr. Dean has helped shape and mold my sons emerging interest in guitar. When practicing on his own, he now sounds like a professional musician. It’s a joy listening to him play and he always looks forward to learning more.

    Frequently asked questions

    We talk about the students goals, music preferences etc. For dance, we'll learn some basic dances to get started, always going at the student's pace. For music, I have an excellent curriculum that can be tailored for all ages from five years old through to adult. Most of all, dancing and music should be a joyful experience that inspires us. 

    I've been teaching music and dance for more than 30 years and have owned my own academy for nearly 15 years. I have taught students of all ages.

    Music lessons are $125 per month for four, 30-minute weekly lessons. Dance lessons are $50 per hour for individuals and $65 per hour for couples.
