I am a 63 year-old woman who has battled with a near lifelong case of Chorophobia - the fancy name for dancing phobia. I had been phobic about dancing for 47 years. Last year I finally reached the point where I was beyond fed up with it, and was ready to kick it and have some fun with the cool kids! I did an online search for a private dancing teacher and was lucky enough to connect with Jennifer Morano. They say when the student is ready the teacher appears, and that was 100% true for me with Jenny. I was so fearful, klutzy and locked up in my body, and Jenny was a Godsend for me. I was and still am open to seeing where my dancing journey leads me, but my immediate goal was modest. I simply wanted to break free of my phobia and have fun dancing to contemporary music. Jenny is a beautiful, professional dancer, and can teach students of all levels and abilities in just about any dance form, but in addition to that, she has a heart as big as all outdoors and the patience of a saint. She is rock solid reliable, and endlessly patient, kind, clear and encouraging. She never loses focus or faith in you no matter how slow your progress. I have been traveling a lot over the last year, but even with all my absences, I'm making progress and breaking free of my old bugaboo, and it's all thanks to Jenny. I recently discovered belly dancing through Jenny. She threw in a few moves for fun one day, and much to my surprise, I loved it! So, we're putting some time in on that now. It's so much fun and such a good workout. Jenny deserves a whole galaxy of stars, not just 5, but Thumbtack only allows for 5. All I can say is that I wholeheartedly recommend Jenny for students of all levels and abilities, and if you're a self conscious, locked up klutz like me, and want to break free, she will be a Godsend and a gem for you! I am enjoying unforeseen benefits from my lessons with Jenny in my daily life too. My balance and coordination are improving, I feel more confident and find myself moving with more grace and flow. Someone even commented that I was light on my feet recently! That's a first! Thank you, Jenny. I'm so grateful I found you.

Jenny and her fiancé were so much fun to work with at our outdoor barbeque party over the weekend. Our guests loved the line dancing instruction and music. Jenny was patient and had a great personality to work with our guests. For our next party, would like to bring them back for salsa/merengue dancing!

I am enjoying working with Jennifer. She is taking great time and value to work on my solo. Along with that she has mentioned a few other opportunities that I have available at my side. Jennifer is professional and easy to work with. So far her schedule is pretty flexible for me. I hope to continue on working with her and other dancers ✨

I really loved working with Jennifer, she was absolutely amazing. She was so quick to respond with my messages and the sessions are always top notch quality. It was my first experience with dance and she has made it wonderful. She also really cares about me reaching my goals, setting a plan for each and every session and always pushes me gently to make myself better and stronger.
