About
Since 2017, I have developed my professional teaching methods—inspired by sport psychology—to develop students of all backgrounds. Knowing what it is like to learn as an adult, I am patient with new students, focusing more on fun and confidence.
I teach all over the valley, and will travel to you!

Kevin is an accomplished instructor, super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. He is everything we were looking for in an instructor. We liked him so much that we are hiring him to choreograph our son’s first dance at his wedding.

Kevin is an incredible teacher! Our group of six enjoyed his instruction, his professionalism, and his interaction with each couple.
We have scheduled weekly lessons and look forward to working with Kevin. We love his positive attitude and excellent dance technique, and we can’t wait to learn to dance with Kevin!

Kevin is an outstanding teacher. I started as a beginner and he made me feel comfortable and taught me to dance with confidence and style. He made it fun!. He was very motivating. He inspired me to go to some competitions and do studio performances. I highly recommend him. In addition to his teaching skills, he is an extraordinary human being. Very respectful, considerate and kind.

I took lessons from Kevin for 5 years. He made learning dance fun. He taught me and gave me confidence to dance many styles of dance. If he were still nearby, I would still dance with him.
Kevin Carpenter's reply
Loretta! Thank you so much for your kind words and loyalty for all those years! You were so graceful and such a pleasant person that had a major impact on my career! Thank you again for your support! I hope to dance on the same competition floor again at some point!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The first lesson is listed at a discount to regular pricing, so you can decide if dancing is a hobby you are interested.
Packages of lessons offer discounts depending on your level, and how large the package is, with an incentive to buy a larger package to ensure that we accomplish your goals within the specified time.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Our typical process for working with students interested in learning a new hobby starts with introducing them to the different styles and having a deep discussion about their goals. This way, we can personalize our manner of instruction to their preferences, and they can pick which styles of dance they are most interested in.
For wedding couples, we listen to their song and discuss which styles of dance go along with it, and follow what is known as the Project Management Iron Triangle to plan and organize their routine.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
We incorporate dance and sport psychology into our lessons and planning to optimize your ability to learn not just dance moves, but also how to be a good partner and performer.
With extensive experience in hospitality, project management, and event planning, we offer thrilling dance parties for you to socialize and practice your dancing!
