Carlo is a wonderful dancer and a superb instructor with many years of experience. He has a great way of articulating how to improve my technique in ways that are easy to understand and he goes above and beyond to make me feel comfortable while I am learning. He is incredibly patient and makes dancing so much fun. Anyone who gets to dance with Carlo will have a grand experience and be very lucky. To top it all off, Carlo's lessons are very reasonable compared to the cost in other studios.

Con Ritmo is an excellent dance center. My instructor, Carlos is a very accomplished dancer and a wonderful instructor. He adapts his teaching approach to the needs of the individual student. He always provides clear, specific instructions, answers questions and provides feedback to insure success. He is professional and very patient and kind. Most importantly, he makes learning to dance very enjoyable and fun! I’ve been Carlos’ student for many years and have encouraged friends and colleagues to take lessons from Carlos. He is a fantastic instructor!
