“You’re not the first people to tell me these things (about my dancing) but you’re the only ones who have been able to show me how to actually FIX them.” - Female student
“Just a brief note to thank both of you for your excellent teaching. I feel that I have made very good progress (in only four classes) and have a much better feel and understanding of the WCS dance…. A key element is that there are TWO teachers and one of them acts as a coach when I am dancing with the other. There is an obvious efficient acceleration of my learning due to that fact and that it also provides several possible explanations (verbal and visual) of something I may not clearly understand and then usually all becomes clear.” – Carlos, student
Maria, Andre and David are a class act and outstanding representatives of the movement of movement.” – TJ
Dave & Maria, that was my first WCS lesson from both of you. You both work well together. … I liked how you watched your students for what they were doing wrong and made us see the error by showing us the wrong way we were doing it and the correct way of doing the step afterwards. I also liked how you knew where we would have difficulty before we even practiced and gave us pointers on what not to do. … Thanks for a great first lesson with you both. - Kathy, student
Our wedding was amazing and our dance impressed a lot of our guests (the majority of comments were towards Vince, along the lines of: “Wow, I never knew you can dance so smoothly, Vince!”). – Lisa & Vince, wedding couple
I want to thank [Maria] and David very much for everything you did to get us ready for our very first event…had a great time and you both are excellent teachers!!!!- Sabrina, student and pro-am competitor
We attended your Sept. workshop and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! Well done and easy to follow…You two have great teaching style…we look forward to more!” – Al & Kathy, students
Our private lesson definitely helped focus me for my competition and it has given me a lot to think about for the competition [next month].. You and Maria are great teacher.” – Lionel, student
Thanks to both of you for an awesome Hustle workshop. Maria, thanks for showing the ladies that they can accentuate their bodies in a beautiful manner. What a confidence builder that is. Andre, thanks for injecting humour into the workshop.” – Kathy, workshop participant
On Sunday, I was dancing a Westie dance and the leader asked me if I had been taking many private lessons with you. I answered ‘yes!’ and asked him why he was asking, and he said it was because, ‘you feel like dancing with Maria’. So there! Awesome teachers!” – Julie, student
Just wanted to let you know that the hour lesson we had with you really paid off! I have never had such an amazing time at a party of any kind. We went to my Brother’s Son’s wedding last Saturday and were dancing from start to finish and were one of the last groups to leave! I can’t express enough how much this means to me and how glad I am that I took that first scary step in contacting you for a lesson. You are wonderful people and instructors and it may be the best $50.00 I have ever spent! I’ll be contacting you for more lessons next year and get into the full ‘swing’!!” – Jim, student
Thanks for your patience and guidance during lessons, the great ideas for dance steps, and your constant encouragement. Everyone loved your lesson on the wedding day. It was simple, fun, engaging and very entertaining.” – Chris & Michelle, wedding couple
I just wanted to send a short note to say thank you for all your help last night at the private lesson at your home. I really appreciate your keen eye for details, flowing arm movements and also crisp, defined movements. I will work on these tips and tricks that you suggested and hopefully I will relax when dancing. Thanks again for your help, you are both very informative, perceptive and skilled at refining ones hidden skills and correcting ones weakness. You also give your students hope and a desire to get better that makes them want to practice the techniques you have given them.” – Dee, student
Thank you so much for teaching us the Hustle – it really made our first dance special, fun and unforgettable for us and our guests.” – Paul & Sarah, wedding couple
Thank you for another great class, we are having so much fun, the class is becoming the highlight of our week. The instruction and format of the class is a perfect match for us. You are inspiring teachers! We have made a pact to get in more practice…we want to make you proud.” – L & L, student couple
