I was really excited to work with Marilla after reading all the great reviews, but unfortunately, she stopped responding at the most critical point—when we were discussing the cost of lessons and scheduling. It’s been weeks now, and it’s clear she doesn’t need or want my business. Thanks, but no thanks.

Mariia Usanina's reply

Hi Crystal , so sorry to hear about bad experience with me. As I texted you earlier my location is very far from you, that’s the reason why we couldn’t schedule a class. But I’m more than happy to give you a free lesson if anytime you in Los Angeles. Thank you

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Every lesson start with warm up where we repeat all the basic figures of the Latin program (cha cha, samba, rumba, pasodoble, jive) or the basic figures of the Ballroom program (Slow Waltz, Tango, Viennese Waltz, Slow Foxtrot, Quickstep) After the warm up, the practice begins with a detailed technique like footwork, arm styling, posture. In the final part of the class, you will learn a new dance routine.
