Private lessons are the best way to learn to dance quickly or to enhance your dance training. If you decide to take private lessons the speed  at which you progress is 10x faster than taking group dance classes. The number 1 benefit in regards to taking a private dance lesson is that the lesson is tailored to your specific dance needs. Many of my students tell me that they like the way I teach because I explain everything in a way that is simple to understand and memorize! I am also told from many of my students that I am a very patient dance instructor which is especially important in your earlier stages of learning to dance.

Proper technique is extremely important and this often is missed in group classes! I emphasize on proper dance technique, style, rhythm, musicality, balance, flexibility, and how you should look and feel natural in all styles. You will start to build confident once you feel comfortable with the dance step patterns and as you continue to learn technique your dancing will start to smooth out and will soon start to build your own style. 

As I had mentioned earlier people take dance lessons for several reasons. Some people want to learn to dance better with their partner or another person. This would fall under that category of Ballroom Style Dancing. Ballroom dance consists of dances such as Salsa, Swing, Tango, Waltz, Cha-Cha, etc. I teach this style in a way that you can dance this casually at any party or event without looking so "Stiff".

Others might want to learn to dance so they can look better on the dance floor at a bar or nightclub. In this type of setting you may or may not be dancing with a partner. You might just be dancing by yourself or in a cluster of people typically known as Freestyle dancing. Freestyle dancing is very common at almost any club so I get a lot of requests from people saying, "I want to dance better when I go out to a club and not look so stiff when I'm dancing." For this I start off by teaching a few basic hip-hop steps then coordinating these steps to club music which is typically a faster tempo. It's a process where I teach you to memorize easy steps that are then implemented into basic patterns. From this point based on how quickly you learn I will build up the patterns by adding in other key elements like what to do with your arms/hands and other body parts.
