Introduction
Hello! My name is Vanessa and I have been in dance since I was a little girl. Dance is a way to express myself and I love sharing my dance knowledge with others. If you’re looking for wedding choreography or even a private lesson for you and your friends, I am more than happy to help you learn. I can teach all ages and will work with you even if you are a brand new dancer ! No worry! Being completely new to dance is exciting!
I was trained in ballet and jazz when I was younger. I have performed in dance shows in college and have also directed a dance show before.
I teach ballroom,hip-hop,musical theater and ballet. You have a group of friends that want to learn ? No problem! I will also work one on one with you.
Here are the different ballroom styles I teach: Salsa,Bachata, Merengue, Rumba, Cha-Cha, East Coast Swing, Tango,Waltz and more...
Whether it’s ballroom or hip-hop, I look forward to dancing with you !

I’ve been taking private ballet lessons with Vanessa and it’s been really fun! I would definitely recommend taking dance lessons from her, or booking her for your next event. I look forward to continuing my ballet lessons!

Learning from Vanessa has been such a quality experience and far better than I could have hoped for. She is teaching me several different dance styles and I will continue to work with her to learn several more. She is great at observing, adapting, and giving feedback. Vanessa has a welcoming and encouraging personality that makes you feel comfortable to want to learn more. This has been demonstrated in Vanessa’s private lessons and her group lessons.
Feel safe to remove any doubts that would hold you back from learning from her.
She is understanding and graceful with the time she allocates to meet your needs in each lesson.
I feel confident that I am getting the best value for my time and that I have the best dancing teacher for me and I believe anyone else would feel the same way.

Vanessa was such an amazing person to work with my daughter had such a fun time with her friends learning the well choreographed dances that she helped put together. It definitely made the night rememberable for the rest of her life. We will definitely use her for anything else that we want to have choreographed in the future. we highly recommend her. She became a part of our family since we worked with her for so many months.
Details: 26-35 • Two people • Salsa • Beginner • Developing a hobby • 45 minutes • Once a week • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

My fiancé and I hired Vanessa to help us with our first dance for our wedding. I’m not a dancer and lack coordination and rhythm. Vanessa brought her dance partner and they were both amazing dance instructors! They made my fiancé and I feel very comfortable, despite how shy & embarrassed I was with my limited dance skills. They were both fun, vibrant, easy to get along with, & very patient when I kept asking for them to repeat their dance steps. They specifically choreographed beautiful and easy dance moves for my fiancé and I to remember, for our first dance. They both have great welcoming energy. And my fiancé & I are considering to take more dance classes with her in the future just for fun! Vanessa EXCEEDS all of the qualities listed in this review: value, professionalism, work quality, AND punctuality & responsiveness. :) Highly Recommend!
Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • First dance • Latin • Slow Dance • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No experience • My home, venue, etc.
