Dancing is a wonderful avenue for social activity and a lifetime investment in fun. Every dancer will  strive for different goals and benefits from learning how to dance. Some dancers will see it as an art, others will see it as a way to socialize and other dancers will view it as a sport offering them the exercise and fitness they desire. We encourage you to let us know your dancing goals.

Student Testimonial

"Today I brought a friend to your beginner salsa class. I had been telling her for weeks how much I love learning to Salsa and, in particular, how much I love classes at your studio. I remember wandering into a party a few months ago, unsure of myself, awkward and convinced I could never learn to dance. The first thing I noticed was the diversity of people attending the party - people of all ages, backgrounds, sexual orientations and skill levels were dancing with each other. Within five minutes of your beginner lesson, I remember thinking, hey! I can do this. The fun of learning to dance in such a friendly environment overrode my anxiety about not knowing how to dance yet. By the end of that first party, I was hooked.

 
When I started the beginner Salsa series, I was still a nervous student, so I just focused on learning the sequences. But this time, I was able to sit back and watch my friend enjoy what I had discovered when I f irst walked into your studio a few months ago. Sitting next to me  was a women watching her young teenage daughter, also in the class. She leaned over to me and said, "I don't ofen see her smile like that." Next to that young girl, I saw an older woman with the same smile. And next to them was my friend, also smiling. And I know that smile - I have left class many times with it plastered across my face.

 
I know you don't see this - you're busy teaching - so I wanted to tell you that i's happening for them as it happened for me. Watching the two of you teach was a wonderful treat: I can see how important it is to you that everyone has a good ime learning how to dance. I think that you are both such naturally gifted teachers that you don' realize what a rare talent it is. That's why I'm writing you this letter to tell you that it's no small thing to teach nervous beginners how to love to dance - to give them a sense of mastery in only an hour.

I left class today with such a feeling of gratitude for what you have brought to my life and to this neighborhood. You have not just taught me some spectacularly sexy salsa; you have welcomed me into a community of amazing people with generous hearts and supersauce moves. So congratulations on your upcoming two year anniversary. May there be many more to come."
