We are an older couple in the middle of a series of lessons with Lorans. He ascertained quickly that we are beginning level dancers, has kept his patience working with us and is moving us forward while making it fun. He notes not only your level of dance, but of fitness needs. We are learning stretching exercises as well as dance moves, and are enjoying it! I highly recommend him to anyone at any level.

I recently had the most wonderful experience with Latin Jam bachata dance lessons, and I cannot recommend them enough! He is incredibly skilled, patient, and passionate about teaching the art of bachata. He created a welcoming and friendly environment, making it easy for beginners like me to feel comfortable and confident on the dance floor. As a result of these exceptional lessons, my confidence in bachata has soared, and I now feel comfortable dancing at social events. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your bachata skills, I highly recommend these lessons. They have truly been a transformative and enjoyable journey into the world of bachata, leaving me eager for more.

My fiancé and I are counting down to our wedding date and Lorans made our first dance lesson fun. He started with the basic steps of rumba and layered in nuances over our 1.5 lesson. Highly recommend!

Lorans is an amazing dancer as well as a very encouraging and motivating teacher! He offers something for everyone... not least of which he knows 40 dance styles, but he also offers private lessons, group lessons and public events. I took a Kizomba lesson from him, and though I have a LONG way to go of course, I learned so much during the first lesson, gathered new music ideas, and was immensely inspired by his style, movements and demonstrations. Highly recommended, especially if you're ready to learn, dance, and enjoy yourself!!
