Salsa, Bachata, Wedding, Latin, Ballroom, Club & Party Dancing in Los Angeles
Custom Dance Lessons & Classes
Connect to Music, Yourself and Others
Social dance is one of the most enjoyable ways to exercise your body, engage your brain, and nourish your soul. It’s also a great way to meet friendly people in a fun and respectful environment. No experience or partner is required! I especially welcome complete beginners and self-proclaimed “2 left feet”-ers!
I offer in-person and online custom Individual, Couple and Group lessons
in Salsa, Bachata, Ballroom, Swing, Wedding and “freestyle” (party/club) dancing, and am available for Events and Corporate Bookings.
My Teaching Style
Enthusiastic, patient & encouraging - great for beginners! I break moves down clearly, build material gradually, and work with you at your own pace in my customized sessions.
We build on a foundation of movement, lead/follow (universal to all partner dances), basic dance figures, musicality & social dance etiquette. I give my students lots of attention and intention. I note and celebrate your progress and achievements.

~~~~~~~~
Partner dance is a lifetime skill you’ll be proud to master, even if you only learn a few basic moves.
It’s a non-verbal language that transcends borders, allowing you to enjoy it anywhere in the world—even with people who don’t speak your verbal language.
You can use it anywhere: parties, nightclubs, weddings, formal events, dates, hoe-downs; with friends, family, and strangers—it’s a wonderful way to meet new people from all walks of life!
Partner dance enhances our ability to be present and connect with others in a positive, considerate, and respectful way.
It helps us let go of our everyday concerns and reconnect with our spirits.
It’s a creative, improvisational art form.
It improves posture, physical mobility, body awareness, and body image.
And of course being alive in your body and feeling great makes you more attractive!
