Dance with Us is a Great Place to Start

Whether or not you have two left feet, are looking for a fun way to exercise, or just love to dance and want an outlet to express yourself, taking classes with Laura and Robert is a great place to start. Their prices are affordable, be it for their ongoing beginning or intermediate group class series, or for their private lessons where you can get that extra attention and work on technique. My husband and I have enjoyed both and really made a lot of progress. We learned some routines in the private lessons that we do at social dances. On a recent trip to a resort, we received many compliments about our skills on the dance floor, which really made us chuckle. He’d initially been so resistant about dancing, thinking he could never learn, but Laura had a way of making him feel at ease with her humor, and with strategic coaching and an ability to get us through trouble areas, my husband can now swing with the best of them. It’s also nice that you don’t have to be part of a couple to take classes. I’ve taken them alone as well with my husband because I can never dance enough, and he does need a break every now and then to do guy stuff.. So what are you waiting for to find your inner Fred and Ginger?

Less Pretension and More Good Humor Makes Learning Easier

Laura Taylor has an ebullient manner and great, common sense, She taught me to ballroom dance, and I take her classes regularly. I learned how much I love to Ballroom and partner dance, and Laura with her partner Robert are dynamic and practiced teachers. I have been a student for both individual and group lessons for eight years, I have gone to other teachers, but because there is so much less pretension and more good humor I always have fun and learn more about myself. Highly recommended!

You can’t go wrong with Dance With US.

I have been taking lessons with Laura and Robert for over 5 years. She has the background and experience to provide you with the correct dance steps. Every time I come away from her lessons with new insights on my form and style. It is also appreciated when her husband, Robert, assists with the teaching. As a male lead he provides a great visual for me to follow. You cannot go wrong with taking either a group class or private lesson with Laura or Robert. Whether you have never danced or have danced for years, you can’t go wrong with Dance With US.

We love Laura and Robert!

Two years ago my husband and I met Laura when we were looking for someone to teach us just one dance for our wedding. Neither of us had danced since high school and we were pretty clueless. Initially we had no intention of continuing, but we were having so much fun with Laura (and occasionally, Robert) that two years later we are still at it. This has very much to do with her lovely demeanor, knowledge of dance, and her skill as a teacher. She has a great teaching style that really works for us. We especially appreciate her undying cheerfulness and patience, because this does not come easily for either of us! We like working with Robert too. Learning to dance is great “couple time”. We take home what we learn in the private lessons and practice at home in the evenings. It’s also really fun to attend the group classes and local dances and to meet new people.

Hours of fun practicing

My husband and I had a great time with Laura preparing for our wedding day dancing.  Already somewhat experienced, we were looking for specific suggestions on improving our dance form and particularly learning more fun swing dance moves.  Laura always listened to our requests and shared her expertise and creative ideas in a joyful way, and she sent us home with fun and inspiring moves to practice.
