Betty’s dance lessons were an absolute delight. Her extensive knowledge and skill were evident as she patiently guided us through each step of our first dance routine. She broke down complex movements into easy-to-follow steps, making the learning process enjoyable and stress-free. Beyond her technical expertise, Betty’s positive energy and encouragement created a fun and supportive learning environment. She was always patient and understanding, adapting her teaching style to our individual needs. We felt comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. Thanks to Betty’s expert guidance, our first dance was a truly memorable moment. We couldn’t have imagined a better outcome, and we’re so grateful for her help!
