My husband and I hired Shannon this fall to help choreograph our "first dance" at our wedding. We literally had zero dance experience but with the help of Shannon's amazing teaching skills, after 3 lessons we mastered our first dance. We will be forever grateful and we truly can't recommend Shannon enough! More...

Working with Shannon was so fun and we love showing off our new dance skills! We began lessons for our wedding but continued after. We only stopped taking lessons because we moved out of state. If we hadn’t moved I think we would have continued with Shannon for a long time. We absolutely fell in love with dance after working with Shannon. More...

Shannon is absolutely fantastic!! We have worked with her for over a year: she has taught us several different dance types and she always makes it fun. She is a wonderful instructor! She can break down technically challenging moves, for our learning style, allowing us to make progress with every lesson as well as practice on our own time. We also worked with Shannon for our wedding dance: it was such a positive experience! She was very flexible with scheduling and she made our dance so creative and personalized! Our friends and family are still talking about our lovely dance and we were delighted with everything. Thank you, Shannon! More...

I can't thank Shannon enough for giving me the skills and most importantly the confidence to go out social dancing. I never thought I'd have date nights out doing dinner and dancing, especially salsa! She is very professional, endlessly patient and supportive. She has amazing technique, a talent for teaching and breaking steps down to their most basic level and a style that makes her students stand out. Shannon is fun but firm in her commitment to help her students realize their dance goals. Just love working with her. More...

Shannon is the best dance instructor I have had for all types of ballroom, salsa and swing. I have been taught by at least 10 dance instructors and Shannon is the only one who really takes the time to understand my issues. Unlike many instructors who barely learned to dance a year before becoming an instructor and are simply teaching you from a manual, Shannon lives, eats, and breathes dance. She has been doing it for over a decade. It doesn’t hurt that she has received extensive training by celebrity dancers and Beyoncé’s choreographer. Shannon also knows how to demonstrate each move (both leader and follower) perfectly and can break down the moves into simple instructions. I made more progress with Shannon in two lessons than I did with months of instruction by others. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her. More...

Shannon is my instructor and she is wonderful. She has a lot of patience and very knowledgeable about various types of dances. Her ability to figure out what challenges are preventing me from progressing forward and helps me to overcome them. She is a really nice but firm instructor which will drive results. More...
