About
I am a licensed dance teacher with over 40 years of teaching social ballroom dancing. Im now an independent teaching private lessons for anyone learning to dance in any social situation. One of my specialties include wedding dance choreography and all aspects wedding dance preparation. My methods integrate the dances so when you learn one dance you're taught to transfer patterns to other dances which helps my students learn 3 times faster. I’m fully vaccinated and now accepting couples/singles and group classes (I’ll even come to you) at my location or yours. Working one on one and up close and personal with people and helping them to achieve their goals and helping them gain the confidence learning to dance brings in the shortest time possible.

Amy is a phenomenal dance instructor and we are so happy we found her to help us with our 1st dance! From the first lesson she was patient and kind and made the whole experience so much fun. We were able to learn our dance in 6 sessions and blew away our family and friends. If looking for a dance instructor, do yourself a favor and please go to Amy!

If you are in need of any dance lessons, Amy is the one to go to! Not only did she help me and my fiancée with some simple but effective dance moves for our up coming wedding, but she’s funny, knowledgeable, patient, and thorough with her training session. We have already booked another session with her and can’t wait to learn some new dance moves. Definitely 5 out of 5.

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

She was great for us. 4 weeks before wedding, no dance experience got us where we needed to be. Focused on exactly what we needed was not pushing long time expensive contracts.

Angela is not only talented but she teaches in a way for the most inexperienced dancer to learn. She crammed our whole routine into 5 hours and we have been pleased with her service.

After years of trying to learn Salsa through YouTube and group classes and being entirely discouraged the whole time, I took one last shot and reached out to Amy. I could not be happier with the teaching and service I've received! She's extraordinarily patient and knowledgeable. She breaks down the moves, step by step, to a point that's easy to understand and internalize. She not only breaks down the step pattern easily, but also emphasizes the science and mechanics of the steps. If you're looking for truly great dance lessons, you need to hire Amy!

Details: 26-35 • One person (one-on-one with instructor) • Salsa • Beginner • Developing a hobby • 60 minutes • As recommended by professional • At the pro’s location
