A Dancer's Voice

I really appreciate being able to take classes with you. Both me and my friend know that you are the best in the county for WCS. We attened a couple of dances several years ago but with the economy and travel time and work, had to stop. We're looking forward to some private lessons, we want to learn styling along with steps. Thanks so much.Karen S.

So sad to hear about Retro!! Just know how much Andy and I appreciate the two of you! You really got us started and we are a pretty happy dance team now. Much love and hope all goes your way --Kathy

Ian and I had a great time last night! (private lesson) Thanks so much for your guidance. Dance will be a life long enjoyment for us now. See you next Tuesday. Jeanne

Mark (her husband )showed me the pattern that you taught in class and it is awesome, what's even more neat in my eyes is that I had no idea how to do it, so I couldn't anticipate the moves whatsoever, and he lead me right into the steps, which was just really cool. If I could only do that in class, I think from now on, he has to dance with other women then show me afterwards, because it's just really cool to have him lead me right into the steps with no anticipation.

Anyway thank you for being such an easy to understand teacher. You Rock! Thanks, Jon

I love your friendly, newsy email reminders and continue to be impressed with how much work you put into them. See you soon, Debbie C.

I would like to take your class again. You and your husband are AMAZING teachers! You have my greatest respect. I have never taken any formal training, so I appreciate your knowledge and ability to assess the student and communicate the specific details of the dance on an individual basis. You are doing a great service to bring dance to the "average Joe (or Jane)" in our area. Thank you! Kathy Uvaro

Since we've had only one WCS lesson, could a new person (man) start Tuesday night @ Henegar? Oh, and I loved the class so much that by Thursday night I wished we'd had another class scheduled for Thur. night!! :-) Thank you, TERRI F.

Just wanted to say thank you for the lessons. Even though I have been dancing for years, taking your beginners class did help me. I have had many dance teachers over the years and I want to say you explain the steps very clearly and pay particular attention to details, especially posture, that has a profound effect on how the male partner is able to lead. Tony being a beginner got a lot from your classes. He is a stronger leader and now understands the steps better.
Unfortunately we are snow birds, but our next time down I will be contacting you for more lessons.
Keep up the good work. Thanks again.
Candace

thank you so much for putting up this website - it
is a wonderful asset to Brevard County dance newbies. Heather B.

Thank you for the lesson (private), it is always a pleasure to learn from you. Your the best. I really enjoyed it. I did think about what I learned when I danced last night and I was using my arms as you taught me. Will focus each time I go dancing. Take care and I'll be in touchl pat

Yay!! Salsa Class Was really fun I loved it!!! Thank you sooo much and I will see u this Saturday At Julias Party!!! Rachel

We had a great time at the private lesson; Sumner and I both feel you are great instructor. Cecelia

I didn't know what to expect when I walked in that door (Retro Room)...But I had a great time!!!

Looking forward to next time, and the future programs available...and the choice of music was just as fun.

I'll be back. Thanks, Mark B.

This was my first visit to floorplay and as I live in London I unfortunately wont be around for the October dance. I just want to wish you luck and to tell you that I really enjoyed the evening. Keep up the good work. Regards eileen

I always have a marvelous time at Floor Play! Of course it takes effort to go but the fun sense of play, learning and friendship are more than worth it! And it's great exercise. Kathy Doner, MD

I am pleased at our dancing progress. Despite lack of practice, we have come a long way. You are an excellent teacher. (Foxtrot Private lessons) Alexandra

I don't think I ever told you that I admire your teaching skills. I could see your dance students taking your comments in and making the necessary changes in their steps. You are very non judgmental and positive. Nancy M.

Just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed meeting you both and the workshop Saturday. I went dancing Sunday night and felt so much more confident with the swing and the waltz. Diane D.

It was great to see you and John again too. I enjoy referring folks to you for dance lessons. It is important when someone is first learning how to dance that they get good quality/detailed dance lessons from the begining for a solid foundation. You are a great teacher and you make the class fun. Teresa B.

Thanks so much for such a wonderful experience. The experiences I had in your class are priceless. My self esteem has increased tremendously not to mention how much fun I had learning how to Salsa dance. You are a wonderful instructor and woman and I look forward to taking more classes with you in the future.

...You have laid a good foundation for me to pursue my interest in dance and I thank you for that. I can promise we will be seeing each other again because you have cultivated an interest in me for Ballroom dancing! You've got my attention!!!!!

Thanks again for such a wonderful experience. Sincerely, Donna A.

I really had fun Friday. Your students are the most sociable of all dancing groups, I think.(Melbourne Floorplay dance) I love your title, "Walk in, Dance out"--it's just perfect.(Workshops) I'll be seeing you back at Retro in a few weeks. You looked great Friday! Tell John I really enjoyed his playlist. Heather E.

...She's a really great teacher, and teaches you the technique in easy-to understand ways. And if you don't understand something, as long as you try and ask about it, she is very willing to work with you to help you

figure out what you are having trouble with. Beaner

To My Favorite Dance Instructor! (a bouquet of flowers) Gratefully your student, Trish V.

I just wanted to drop you a few electrons to tell you how much I enjoyed
last night's class. Even though it was warm and smoky, the music was great
and you both did a wonderful job of teaching. I feel that you got the mix
just right of reinforcing the steps and introducing new material. I felt
like I had learned a lot. I also got to dance with some lovely ladies.
Bonus! Tim S.

Laura, thanks for helping me. I can't believe how many things from before fell into place last night in what you were demonstrating and explaining. Elaine J.

I have been dancing for over 8 years and have taken classes from basic to advanced from many different instructors. Laura breaks down each dance move into easy to remember segments. Laura is the only instructor I have had that combines teaching the proper steps, stopping bad habits, AND techinque all during one session. It's like getting three classes in one. Paul E.

Your class was a lot of fun last night! I like the small venue (Retro Room), which seems non-threatening and like a date as well as a lesson. The music was great, too! Heather E.

Just wanted to thank you both for the time you spend teaching me. I learn a lot from both of you and thoroughly enjoy the lessons with you. I think you are both excellent teachers and have a lot to offer anyone who wants to learn how to dance. I am telling anybody who shows an interest in dancing about you. Linda S.

. . ..And thanks so much for all the patience you show us in class. We are having so much fun! Tricia & Jason

....I told her about you and John. .... You are always so friendly and helpful. Thanks Vonda G.

What a wonderful party and nice group of people. I think we all feel so comfortable! And that's because you and John make it that way. Jane T.
