Working with Michelle is amazing because you knows her skill so well that I feel any question can be cleared up within a matter of minutes. She has amazing energy that gats you prepared and ready to dance! If you want to learn fast and have a instructor that knows the ins and outs of her craft and can relay it in a easily understandable way choose Michelle!

Michelle is an amazing coach. Her energy, her humor, and her passion for dance make each lesson entertaining, personalized, engaging, and most of all fun. She lets me take my lessons in the direction and the pace that I want them to go at, while being encouraging, patient, and making me feel more confident in my dancing skills. I always look forward to our lessons.

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We start with a phone call to discuss your interests. Following that, wedding or private lesson dance students usually meet me for a first lesson; from there we estimate the number of lessons and time commitment to meet their goals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
NADTA Certified.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I've been teaching dance since age 14. I began teaching partner dance as a member of a college club in 1997 and never stopped!
