Learn at Your Pace with One-On-One Dance Instruction

My husband and I started taking ballroom dance lessons as beginners. We tried group lessons before, but came away frustrated and disappointed because it moved too quickly. And trying to learn steps from online videos just led to the need to unlearn incorrect habits. Private instruction is the only way to go. The essential details of movement and the aha moments are only achieved working with an instructor one-on-one.

When my son announced he was getting married, I wanted to be able to dance with my wife at the reception. Leslie was recommended by a close friend. That was three years ago. We have continued the lessons and found Leslie a dream to work with. She is willing to go at our pace and adapt to our creative ideas. It has been a wonderful experience to share with my wife.

– John Conner

I used Leslie for my father-daughter dance lessons. She custom curated a dance that went with our song; it was short, fun and made two people with absolutely no dance background feel like we had some moves! It was so fun to share that moment with my dad and also with Leslie who is just so wonderful at her craft. I’ll cherish the memory forever. Highly recommend Leslie!!

Ballroom Dancing Lessons for Everyone

Even if you swear you have two left feet, Leslie will give you confidence on the dance floor. Learn about different styles of dance, which dance goes with which music, how to execute the steps with your partner. Try your hand (feet!) at the rumba, chacha, swing, salsa, foxtrot, waltz, tango, quickstep, foxy, Argentine tango, or west coast swing.

Bring a special song for your wedding or upcoming event and let Leslie guide you on the best dance style for your song choice.
