We’ve had such a great experience with Danelis! We’re learning our first dance for our wedding, which includes two songs that need a seamless transition, and she’s done an amazing job choreographing it all. Neither of us has any dance experience, but she’s been so patient and makes every lesson fun and enjoyable. She really listens to what we want and has made the whole process so much easier than we expected. We’re feeling more confident with every lesson. She is also very responsive and we would definitely recommend her!

Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • First dance • What my teacher recommends • Beginner • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Had a great time learning a first dance with my partner. Messaged Danelis on the app and got a super fast response, was able to schedule 4 lessons to choreograph and practice a first dance, the lessons were so fun and the end dance was beautiful and within our ability. She was able to accommodate lessons around our work schedules, and choreograph something even two first time dancers could perform. So thankful we found her!

Details: 26-35 • Two people • Modern / Contemporary • Beginner • Preparing for a wedding • 60 minutes • As recommended by professional • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Danelis is an amazing teacher! I hadn’t danced salsa in years and honestly never felt like I was very good at it. After just one lesson with her, I was able to reconnect with the basics, put everything together, and actually feel confident leading on the dance floor. Most importantly, she made dancing feel fun and natural. She’s patient, encouraging, and knows how to make you feel comfortable while learning. Highly recommend her!

Details: 36-45 • One person (one-on-one with instructor) • Salsa • Beginner • Developing a hobby • I'm flexible • As recommended by professional • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.
