About
I am a passionate Latin dancer as well as a Latin dance instructor. I have been dancing for more than 20 years, exploring different styles such as salsa, bachata, cumbia, and merengue as well as cha cha and Latin Hustle. I have received training from Rumba Brava Dance Company and Salsaymotion Dance Academy, which are 2 well-regarded dance schools in the Seattle area. At Salsaymotion Dance Academy, I previously taught classes for 3 years, sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm with students of all levels and ages. As a dancer, I really enjoy social dancing and meeting new people. As a teacher, I aim to inspire my students to discover the joy of dancing and to improve their skills and confidence. I specialize in helping beginners learn how to Latin dance quickly while having a lot of fun along the way.

John Chau the owner of LDX Latin Dance is an extraordinary instructor and leader . I began my journey in July with private lessons from him at his home studio. Being a new dancer, I was nervous and wasn’t sure if I could do the lessons. John has a way to make people feel comfortable with his patience, kindness and humor. Before I knew it he taught my daughter and I Merengue, Bachata, Salsa and Cumbia. John goes beyond his home studio to ensure his students can apply their learning in a social environment. He takes the time to go to socials with his students and practice with them in a live environment. Honestly, I have never known any company to go to that much work for a client. This experience has changed my life and built my confidence beyond my wildest dreams. I highly recommend LDX Latin Dance! Tamara S.

We had the pleasure of inviting John, a fantastic salsa dancer, to our company summer picnic, and he truly made the event unforgettable! John has an incredible talent for heating up the vibe and getting everyone involved. Even those with zero dance experience found themselves having a blast. One of the highlights was when John helped us create a unique fusion of Bollywood and salsa, dancing salsa to Bollywood music. It was an absolute hit and added a special touch to our event. John is not only a skilled dancer but also a genuinely nice person who brings a lot of fun and energy. We would definitely love to work with him again in the future. Highly recommend!

In my group classes, I've been regularly placed in the Advanced Beginner section. This has been a lot of fun. There is one hindrance to going social dancing: coming up with choreography for your follow. In other words, we "leads" need to come up with a routine (by staying one or two steps ahead of our "follow") and then effectively communicate that to her with our frame + hands. This is hard. No way around it. It is hard to lead. This is a significant roadblock on the way to social dancing. Believe me, there is a ton of social dancing opportunities here in Seattle. The whole reason for taking classes is to go social dancing. Well, if you are afraid to go, what is the point? Lucky for me, I met up with John Chau, owner and founder of LDX Latin dance. As a male, he knows the struggle of leading and the dreaded "frozen mind." I decided to take private classes with him because he has a system which is logical and takes some of the pressure off of the memory by making it easy to come with variations on the moves you already know. Just a few classes into this and my confidence is already improved. Based on what I have learned so far, I have no hesitation recommending LDX Latin dance and PRIVATE lessons with John, especially the men out there who suffer from stage fight and a frozen mind on the dance floor. One tip: if you can bring a follow with you, that will help. She can practice with you on days you are not in class, as well as attend social dances with you. Then, when you come back to class, the two of you can work together so you both improve. I highly recommend John Chau and LDX Latin Dance in Renton if you want to increase your salsa dancing skills. He is very accommodating to your busy work life, traffic commutes, and social schedule. He also has access to social dancing events during the week and weekends in different parts of the Seattle metro area. You cannot go wrong taking lessons with LDX Latin Dance.
