One-on-one or with your partner, every minute is built around you. Michael watches what you actually do, fixes it on the spot, and never makes you feel behind. It is the gentlest on-ramp we have, and the quickest one too.
No row of thirty, no eyes on you while you find the beat. Just you, Michael, and the floor until it clicks.
Every second is yours. No waiting your turn, no generic pace. You learn the steps that matter to you, in order.
A wedding song, salsa for date night, or finally getting comfortable. Tell Michael the target and he builds toward it.

I LOVE MICHAEL!! He has been so patient and kind and forgiving with us doing this learning process. He custom cut down our first dance song and completely designed our dance around our personalities and abilities.
If you are here for the wedding, private lessons are exactly how Michael builds it. He custom-cuts your song and choreographs the whole routine around the two of you, your personalities, and your real ability. The result looks like nobody else’s.

Tell him what you are hoping to learn and he builds the lesson around you. No experience, no partner, no pressure. Private lessons run by appointment, Monday through Saturday.
