What Our Students Say

Read what our students have to say about our dance lessons

"Mané and Roger are the dream team. We find it very helpful to get instruction from both the leader's and follower's viewpoint. We learn new patterns easily because they break them down step by step and we love their focus on style and technique. They are patient, kind and enthusiastic. They love West Coast swing and we love learning it from them."

"Roger and Mané were excellent dance teachers. We came to them at the last moment in a panic to prepare for our son’s wedding. They not only reassured us but also took us from being novices to being confident enough to do the Father-Daughter and Mother-Son dances at really short notice. And we have great pictures to prove this! We highly recommend them for all of your dancing needs."

"I am so grateful to have worked with Mané and Roger. After surgery to reconstruct my ACL and repair my meniscus I did not know if I would be able to dance professionally again. With their incredibly meticulous and caring help I was able to rejoin my ballet company. They helped push me to gain back my strength and instilled in me confidence with their positivity and support. They taught me to always reach out further and to not just execute the steps but actually dance them."
