About
Hello, My name is Ka Laam. Dance is my greatest passion and it’s what I’ve been doing all my life. I specialize teaching in Classical Ballet, Contemporary, Salsa, Bachata, Jazz, Heels, partner dancing and K-pop. I also offer stretch and strengthening as well as Tik Tok videos dances:) I have eared different Royal Academy of Dance Ballet certifications in Hong Kong and I came to LA at the age of 17 to pursue a B.A degree in Theater and Dance at CSUDH. I graduated with Cum Laude honor and earned my own banner on campus. I’ve also trained in Hip Pop, Tap, Ballroom, African Dance, and Bellydance etc I have trained under Galen Hooks, Tina Landon(previous Janet Jackson’ choreographer), Antonio D’Byod(pervious principal dancer in Alvin Ailey’s Company), John Todd, Kenneth Walker, Jeff Hendrix etc. I have also performed in different events such as The American College Dance Conference; The LA Bachata Festival and College dance concerts. I stand out because I am a patient teacher with a confidence building system in class. I know what is the right technique for my students and I am all about my students success with a fun class setting. No matter you’re preparing to be a professional or just for fun, I can help you to reach your goal:)

Ka Laam was amazing! She was super patient with us since we had no dance experience. She choreographed a beautiful routine for our wedding’s first dance, worked around our schedule and tight timeline, and made it all so much fun. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for dance lessons. She is great!

Details: Two (e.g., myself and my husband) • First dance • What my teacher recommends • Waltz • Slow Dance • Latin • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No experience • I travel to the wedding dance instructor • The wedding dance instructor travels to me

Thank you so much Gina:) it’s my pleasure to choreograph your first dance. You two are very easy to work with and it made my job so much easier as well. Good job on learning a long choreography and practicing without me. I’m extremely happy for you two and I wish you nothing but the best

Ka Laam worked with my husband and I before our wedding and choreographed our first dance. We are both awful dancers and wanted something special for our wedding day. We took 5 lessons with Ka Laam and although 1 and 2 were rusty, but 3/4/5 we were feeling good and LOVED the dance she put together for us- it was the perfect amount of fun and romance. Ka Laam was patient, kind, and very thorough ensuring our posture and moves were just right! Her approach to teaching worked great and our dance ended up being our favorite part of our wedding.

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

Ka Laam was incredibly professional and very patient, I was as stiff as a board when I would dance and she made me feel comfortable enough to let my guard down and taught me to dance to bachata,banda,hip hop, and much more! So dont hesitate to book her as your dance instructor!

Details: 18-25 • One person (one-on-one with instructor) • Bachata • No experience • Preparing for a wedding • 45 minutes • Once a week • At the pro’s location
