Introduction

I am an experienced dance instructor covering Latin, Ballroom, and Club dance styles! My teaching methods are geared to how you learn best - visual, kinesthetic, auditory, etc. I began dancing at the age of nine in the Pacific Northwest region and became an International Ballroom 10-Dance DanceSport competitor. At the age of 21 I left the performance/competitive world of dance and began working as a part-time dance instructor in various private and franchise studios in Seattle, Orange County - California, and Brooklyn - NYC, while pursuing a professional career in healthcare and public health. I have seen dance change countless lives. It is the universal language that overcomes all boundaries - may it be religion, geography, character, culture, and all else. Whether you are looking to overcome your anxiety, build confidence to meet someone special, get ready for a wedding, or need some spice at an event/party - I will help you all shine your brightest on the dance floor.

Maria was an absolute dream to work with! She was SO kind, talented and helpful! :) She helped my vision and dream of the perfect first dance become reality by choreographing and training my husband and I over the course of a few months. I can't thank her enough for her part in making my wedding day the best day of our lives <3 I highly recommend her to anyone that is interested in learning to dance, polishing their skills or just having a fun date night with their partner. She's a treasure :)

She was great and we learned our choreography in two hours. We will probably hire her again right before the big day to refresh the dance.

Maria did a short performance for us and led a group of 20 in a salsa dance session. She is an incredible teacher, commands the room and extremely professional; her dancing was beautiful, graceful and her passion for her dancing clearly shines through; would have no hesitation in highly recommending her...
