Shannon helped craft a beautiful dance for my now wife and I as well as my mother and I. We really left things to the last minute, but Shannon ensured we were ready in 4 lessons for our two minute dance! She really went above and beyond to make out very tight schedule work so that we could get all our lessons in. She gave us a ton of confidence so we felt ready when we stepped out there. Super flexible with choreography and taking our suggestions, accommodating on time, professional and just a really sweet human being.

I hired Shannon to give us a group dance lesson at my sister’s roaring 20’s birthday party and it was a blast! We had people of all ages and ability levels and Shannon was great at directing us all and demonstrating and keeping things moving along so there was no awkwardness. There was a change last minute on her end but she said “I never cancel on people”. She’s sweet, an incredible dancer, and we will love those dancing memories for a lifetime!

We needed Shannon for something a bit unusual and specific. She responded quickly, was very sweet and easy to work with, was able to get what we needed from her and gave us her all in a short amount of time. Great with all levels of experience in her students. Thank you, Shannon!
