Ernesto was patient, kind and very professional during my private Salsa lesson. I decided to use private lessons to supplement the dance class I am taking twice a week, due to self-consciousness and the fact that this is the first time I’ve ever had formal dance instruction. Needless to say, it’s a little intimidating for a dude who THOUGHT he had rhythm! From the beginning, Ernesto was engaging, attentive, and tailored the instruction around both my strengths and weaknesses. He helped me to get comfortable “feeling & listening” to the music first, then helped me incorporate that into my footwork and partner dancing. His tips were extremely valuable, and while I’m far away from being the Salsa aficionado I hope to be one day, I look forward to more lessons with Ernesto to improve my knowledge and skill. Thank you, Ernesto!

Details: 36-45 • One person (one-on-one with instructor) • Salsa • Beginner • Developing a hobby • 60 minutes • Once a week • At the pro’s location

I’m in my early 50s and have always carried a *deep* fear of dancing, despite becoming athletic after years of weight training! Childhood ridicule, PTSD, and some movement limitations from an old spinal cord injury made me shrink in social spaces where music and movement should’ve lifted me up. Enter Ernesto! From the very first 15 min at the studio, he created a safe, empowering space for me. Pretty quickly he saw through my rattled nerves and gently guided me past it, helping me reconnect with movement to my body in a way I didn’t believe was possible for me tbh. Ernesto teaches with precision, patience, purpose, humor, and refined intuition. He also read my posture, rhythm, energy, and (I think) potential, noticing characteristics of my movement that doctors had overlooked. Ernesto believes in adapting, not dismissively compensating, for what your body can do. Then, within two hours, I already started unlocking a joy and confidence that had been buried for decades. He’s helped me believe that I can dance on the floor at shows, move freely with my husband, and finally take up that space.

Details: 46-65 • One person (one-on-one with instructor) • Salsa • No experience • Developing a hobby • 60 minutes • More than once a week • At the pro’s location

Ernesto is awesome and gives very detailed one on one attention. He tailored the entire choreography to our skill level and worked us upto good dancers. You’ll come in not knowing how to dance and walkout ready to have your moment in the spotlight

Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • First dance • What my teacher recommends • I'm flexible • No experience • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Ernesto is an excellent dance instructor. He gives very clear instructions and makes it fun and puts emphasis on the physical part. Given suggestions about what muscles to develop a little more to have a better outcome as far as posture and preventing injuries. You get two for one dance and personal trainer.
