Jaime and Mike offer private coaching for individuals, couples, and small groups, whether it's for fun or to prepare for a special event. We especially welcome people who are shy or feel they lack rhythm or coordination.

​

WHY WOULD YOU TAKE PRIVATE LESSONS?

• You'll learn at a more rapid pace than in group classes and can focus on areas you most need help with

• Your schedule doesn't allow you to attend the community classes

• You want to prepare for a special event, such as a wedding

• You want to have a fun activity for the people at a special event you are hosting

Private dance lessons are perfect if you...

• Get nervous in a group class setting and prefer working one-on-one

• Want to learn at your own speed rather than be rushed (or slowed) by the pace of a group class

• Want to become a better dancer faster

• Have a busy schedule and want to maximize your time

• Want to take your dancing to the next level by improving your leading/following, rhythm, technique, styling, musicality, etc.

• Are preparing for a special event or trip
