Erin made my wife’s birthday very special with a surprise wedding dance lesson a week before the big day. She taught us the essential moves, including how to dip (which turned out amazing in our photos!). Her flexibility to make this happen on short notice with a tailored lesson to our song made the wedding so amazing. Thank you Erin!

Erin is the perfect wedding dance instructor: warm, relaxed and effective. Her approachable process breaks down the fundamentals and then builds on inspiring ideas for your special moment. My fiancé Daniel couldn’t stop taking about how much he enjoyed the lessons with Erin. We finally know how to do a proper dip! Thank you for the extra confidence and joy you helped cultivate for our wedding dance.

I have had two classes with Erin so far. It's been an absolute delight to work with her! She is super friendly , puts in a lot of effort to understand the needs of her student and work with them based on what they are looking from her class! I wanted to take some private lessons as I am very conscious about dancing in public and being an adult makes it all the more difficult to shed these inhibitions. I learn hip hop currently from her. She has been very encouraging, fun to be around which is helping me build my confidence! She knows a wide range of dance forms and can teach you a mix of them if that's what you are looking for. Totally worth taking lessons from her! Has been a wonderful experience so far :)

Swathi, working with you is a total blast! I love the music you chose, and it's so fun to dance with you while getting you coordinated, out of your head and happily into your body. Yes, you can groove lady!

Erin is the dance teacher I was waiting for. She provides a comforting yet challenging environment to learn dance in and has transformed not only my dance technique but also how I use my body mindfully to eliminate performance anxiety and own the stage. She is amazing for any styles of dance and is attentive, charismatic, extremely qualified, and has even become a huge role model for me. I came to her with a lot of past insecurities and trauma around not feeling like I was able to dance, and Erin has begun to transform who I thought I was into a confident and skilled dancer and woman. When teaching a movement, she goes in depth into what muscles to engage and what parts to relax as well as how your body should position and support itself so you can dance your best! She also tunes to your needs and wants throughout the lesson and is eager to answer any questions or take time to explain a movement or combination thoroughly. I cannot recommend her more. If you’ve been aching to find a private dance teacher who will bring you a movement revolution, here she is!

Details: 18-25 • One person (one-on-one with instructor) • Ballet • Beginner • Developing a hobby • 60 minutes • As recommended by professional • I travel to the dance instructor
