About
Hi there! My name is Megan Pastrallo! I’ve been dancing my whole life and I turned that passion into teaching several years ago. Whether you’re looking for a choreographed dance for your wedding/quinceanera or a private ballet lesson for your toddler, I always come into my lessons fully prepared and excited to help you learn. I teach all ages as well as all levels so if you’ve never danced before that’s okay! Getting a new student excited about dance is one of my favorite parts about teaching.
I graduated from CBU with a degree in Theatre: Performance. I performed professionally with Theatre Royale and trained at South Coast Conservatory in Orange County. I also worked at Fox Dance Studio as a ballroom, tap, jazz, and ballet instructor as well as an event choreographer.
I teach over 20 genres of ballroom as well as line dancing, tap, ballet, jazz and musical theater. If you’re looking to have a group take class or take a private lesson I’m available for either! I look forward to dancing with you!
Here are the different partner style dances I teach: East Coast Swing, Salsa, Bachata, Rumba, Cha Cha, Lindy Hop, Waltz, Viennese Waltz, Foxtrot, Tango, Country Two Step and Nightclub Two step.

Didn’t know what to expect but Megan was great. Neither I nor my fiance have any dance experience but she made us feel super comfortable during our first lesson and now I feel confident that we aren’t going to look silly during our first dance. She makes it feel fun and low pressure and I’m actually looking forward to our next lesson. She’s also super professional and communicative. Highly recommend! Book her if you want to feel confident for your first dance, or even just wanna have a little fun little date night. You won’t regret it!
Details: My home, venue, etc.

She came to our home to teach a salsa class for my friends and I and we had so much fun! Very professional and positive. We’ll be booking her again for sure!

I had the best time dancing with Megan! Feeling way more confident to go out dancing on my own. I’ll definitely be going back to learn from her again 🥰

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My fees are dependent on a few things. How many people, how far the location, how many lessons you’re looking to book, etc. I do offer discounts so let me know as many details as possible so we can get you the best deal!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Communication is so important! Why you are learning will really set the pace for what you are learning. I love when my students tell me exactly their experience, what they are learning for, and then we can set goals for what we want to accomplish together!
What types of customers have you worked with?
I’ve worked with clients of all ages and experience levels. Whether you’re learning for fun so you can dance well at a country/latin club or you’re looking for coaching for a ballet competition number, I have experience in all areas! I specialize in two left feet so don’t let an absence of experience keep you from starting your dance journey!
