Introduction: Hello! My name is Vanessa and I am 25 years old. I have been in dance since I was a little girl. Dance is a way to express myself and I love sharing my dance knowledge with others. If you’re looking for wedding choreography or even a private lesson for you and your friends, I am more than happy to help you learn. I can teach all ages and will work with you even if you are a brand new dancer ! No worry! Being completely new to dance is exciting!
I was trained in ballet and jazz when I was younger. I have performed in dance shows in college and have also directed a dance show before.
I teach ballroom,hip-hop,musical theater and ballet. You have a group of friends that want to learn ? No problem! I will also work one on one with you.
Here are the different ballroom styles I teach: Salsa,Bachata, Merengue, Rumba, Cha-Cha, East Coast Swing, Tango,Waltz and more...
Whether it’s ballroom or hip-hop, I look forward to dancing with you !

I’ve been taking private ballet lessons with Vanessa and it’s been really fun! I would definitely recommend taking dance lessons from her, or booking her for your next event. I look forward to continuing my ballet lessons!

Learning from Vanessa has been such a quality experience and far better than I could have hoped for. She is teaching me several different dance styles and I will continue to work with her to learn several more. She is great at observing, adapting, and giving feedback. Vanessa has a welcoming and encouraging personality that makes you feel comfortable to want to learn more. This has been demonstrated in Vanessa’s private lessons and her group lessons.
Feel safe to remove any doubts that would hold you back from learning from her.
She is understanding and graceful with the time she allocates to meet your needs in each lesson.
I feel confident that I am getting the best value for my time and that I have the best dancing teacher for me and I believe anyone else would feel the same way.

Lynn and I hired Vanessa to teach, mostly me, how to dance for an upcoming Wedding of our Grandson. I have never taken dance lessons and considered myself a pretty bad dancer. The very first lesson, Vanessa had me not only dancing the Foxy but doing so as the lead. I can’t say enough about how good she is and how easy she made it for me to understand the basics of dancing.
Vanessa taught us two other dance steps and I know that Lynn and I will do her proud at our Grandson’s wedding! Lynn will also be leaving a review.

We absolutely loved, loved Vanessa! She was incredible to work with and so responsive with all of my requests and questions. She taught my bridal party and I a dance for the day of my wedding. I literally cannot wait to surprise my fiance with this! She also taught some twerking movements which we found hilarious and even brought our newly learned dance moves to the club that night! She was incredible!
