Gonzalo was amazing! In only 9 lessons, he was able to take us from complete novices to doing a beautifully choreographed first dance for our wedding. He is so patient and knowledgeable, and he is able to make you feel comfortable in order to fully absorb the lessons. You can tell he is passionate about it work, and he does a great job of instilling it in you. I would 100% recommend taking lessons with Gonazalo if you ever have the need.

Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • First dance • Slow Dance • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No experience • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Gonzalo is excellent! My husband and I are thoroughly enjoying our lessons with Gonzalo. He is an amazing teacher in that he breaks the dance down into understandable steps and is able to teach to different learning styles and abilities. He is personable, friendly, and always has a positive attitude. We definitely recommend taking dance lessons with Gonzalo!

Had a private lesson for ballet because I haven’t danced in a while. It was very worth the time and money as Gonzalo gave me corrections that changed the way in how I was approaching dance in general. Great insights, really good advice, and an overall great class!

Details: 18-25 • One person (one-on-one with instructor) • Modern / Contemporary • Intermediate • Developing a hobby • 45 minutes • Once a week • At the pro’s location

Gonzalo is an incredibly attentive and patient teacher. He is very flexible in scheduling and in payment, but still always provides high quality service. He is teaching me the utmost valuable lessons in ballet, and I am improving by leaps and bounds every session. I would highly recommend to hire Gonzalo as your mentor for any dance project, this is private lessons at the greatest value!

Details: 18-25 • One person (one-on-one with instructor) • Ballet • Intermediate • Developing a hobby • 60 minutes • Once a week • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.
