About
I am a professional dancer who has danced professionally with ballet companies, on board Celebrity Cruises and toured the U.S. with the Utah Ballroom Dance Company. I have a B.F.A. in Dance from The University of California - Irvine and I have been teaching and coaching for over 10 years all over the U.S.. Some of my former students have won national dance competitions in ballet, jazz and song - pom and some are now dancing professionally including several as NFL cheerleaders. I also work with people on their wedding dance and hold group classes for the bridal party (Check out more information on wedding dances by following @FirstDanceLexington on Instagram or head to the website). If you are looking for a fitness routine I also teach barre (mixture of pilates, yoga, and ballet exercises -- certified in the BarreAmped method), and bounce (rebounder: mini trampoline great for high cardio low impact) fitness classes -- along with dance fitness or dance technique. I have worked with students from ages 3 to 88. It is never too late to start dancing or working out :) I can bring my own barre, music, and expertise to your house providing a customized workout for you from the comfort of your home (living room, garage, even outside)! If space is an issue we can discuss other locations at studios, or even online. I love figuring out how people learn. It is so rewarding to see someone learn a new dance move and feel confident doing so! I love hearing their stories about how to go out and show their friends and family what they have learned!

Dani was wonderful. She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and helpful. I was worried about the price but honestly it was totally worth it. My fiance and I went to see Dani for lessons for our 1st dance at our wedding. We left feeling much more confident and prepared. I'd would recommend Dani to anyone looking for a dance lessons of any kind.

Dani met with my son and I very short notice just before his first (cancelled COVID wedding) and again before the rescheduled wedding. She quickly taught us a series of easy dance moves for our mother-son dance and then kindly worked with my son and daughter in law as an add on. We all got rave reviews at the wedding. Dani was so welcoming and put us at ease from the moment we met her. She was wonderful and with two more potential mother-son dances to go … we will be seeking more lessons!

Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • Parent dance (i.e., father/daughter) • What my teacher recommends • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No song preference • No experience • At the pro’s location

Dani is a terrific instructor and dancer. My fiancé and I are getting married in about 3 months and have little experience. Dani has been able to show us techniques we can learn and feel comfortable with quickly and even build a routine for our big day. We highly recommend her and look forward to learning more!

Details: Two (e.g., myself and my husband) • First dance • What my teacher recommends • Beginner • I travel to the wedding dance instructor • The wedding dance instructor travels to me

We are SO glad we took a lesson with Dani before our wedding. We were not comfortable/ hadn't ever danced together before the lesson and we left feeling 100x better. Highly recommend for couples getting married who may need some dancing tips!
