“Alli taught me the beginning steps of following when I started West Coast. She has seen and helped me become a dancer as I have grown and become more grounded in my dancing. She offers support in classes when we cover harder topics to make them easy and understandable. Alli always has a positive attitude which definitely makes the lessons more enjoyable. She is someone who I can always recommend for west coast swing.”

“Alli is able to make tough concepts easy. From fundamental workshops to more advanced topics and areas of dance, Alli has made the content easy to understand and employ in my dancing. She is great for visual and kinesthetic learners like myself; each time I have walked away feeling a more confident dancer. Now, I am competing and really finding myself in my dance journey. Alli is a huge part of my story, and I cannot recommend her enough to newer dancers or those looking to start west coast swing/modern swing.”

“Max is an amazing teacher who goes above and beyond to make his students feel comfortable, and feel like they are great dancers. I appreciate his ability to provide great feedback along with kindness and humor. I feel lucky to have him as a teacher and I would recommend him to anyone!”

“Max has helped me grow so much as a dancer in just a few short months! With a sharp eye for detail and deep technical expertise, he can quickly pinpoint what’s not working and offer clear, practical solutions to improve it. Whether it’s a group class or a private lesson, I leave feeling supported and equipped with tools I can put into practice. All in all, Max is a truly dedicated teacher who cares deeply about his students’ growth!”

“Max pushed my boundaries as a dancer in the best way. His teaching style combines taking your current skills and polishing them and placing seeds for you to grow as you practice and polish on your own. He is a great teacher in a class setting and individually. He loves to weave in humor to his classes - which I always appreciate – while also being able to clearly dictate the moves and concepts we are learning. Max is someone who I can always come up to and ask a question about dance or about life and still walk away feeling like I have learned something new or grown as a person and dancer.”

“Max is a teacher who is willing to sit down and listen to me and create plans on how to approach my questions at a pace that works for me. He has helped me create an “attack plan” on tackling several areas of my dance. I went from a Novice, both in terms of time and skill in West Coast, to quickly advancing my social and competitive skills. Not only is he an all-star dancer but an all-star teacher.”
