Ballroom dancer with experience teaching at collegiate level gives lessons at home in San Diego to all ages

Methodology

Each lesson is structured by type of dance (Latin: cha cha, rumba, samba, jive, paso doble; Standard: waltz, tango, foxtrot, Viennese waltz, quickstep), ideally being able to learn 3-4 dance steps per lesson (this can be adjusted depending on student needs). We start by learning the fundamental footwork as slowly as needed, then begin to speed up the tempo until it can be danced to music at normal speed. At the end of each lesson, students leave with a small routine that they may practice individually or with a partner to build on the skills learned.
