The dance teacher communicated well when we talked and she was very polite and helpful and friendly. When I got to the lesson we worked on ballet basics and she knew what she was doing. She was again very helpful and polite. She was a very competent teacher. I enjoyed myself and I will try to go again when I can!

Charla is great to work with! She is extremely talented and accommodating and makes learning not only easy but fun. We did private lessons and had her choreograph our first dance and have been more than happy with the results!
