"Having known Jesse for over 3 years, we have been very impressed with his teaching skills.  Not only is he well-versed in a wide variety of dances, he also brings to our lessons an enthusiasm and a determined commitment to our progress. Additionally, his easy, natural sense of humor and his patience contribute to the pleasure of our lessons."

"It’s hard to put this level of gratitude into words. Learning to dance for our wedding has easily been some of our best and most memorable moments in our 6 years together. Something that felt so intimidating, he made so easily attainable and most of all, so fun!! We were shocked by how far we’ve come over just the last few months and what we were able to do on our wedding day, much thanks to you. Your ability to relate and make us comfortable throughout the process is so appreciated!
Following the wedding, multiple people have asked us what our favorite part of the day was. Hands down, it was our first dance. When you’re getting married, you hear constantly how important it is to have date nights and shared activities. After six years together, we found that in dancing. It was a no-brainer to continue lessons after the wedding. Neither of us are “naturals” and we’re definitely a work in progress but it’s been so special to learn something new together.  Of all the “obligatory” wedding expenses, dance lessons are the one thing we’ve invested in that is truly enriching our marriage."

"As inexperienced dancers, my wife and I wanted our first dance at our wedding to be something to look forward instead of dread. He made us feel comfortable and confident, with our 2 left feet and all. We not only crushed our first dance, but he also taught us dances that we used throughout the night. We had such a great time learning from Jesse that we continued lessons well past our nuptials! Couldn’t recommend dance lessons with Jesse enough."

"Jesse is a great instructor, particularly if you're new to dancing. He's great at breaking down moves and making the steps easy to understand. He's also good at correcting mistakes but doing it in a way that keeps it fun. He keeps the emphasis on dancing and learning the moves rather than specific choreography. My fiance and I ended up looking for lessons for our first dance pretty late in the game and Jesse was definitely the right choice. Highly recommend!"
- Bart & Daria R.

"My fiance and I took ballroom dance lessons from Jesse for over 1 year and we had a great experience with him. He always took the time to fully explain movement concepts while keeping things fun. Jesse gave us the freedom to learn any type of ballroom dance we wanted including salsa, bachata, rumba, waltz, and any thing else we were interested in learning. Jesse was very professional during every lesson, but always knew how to make learning new dances fun."
- Kristen S. & Chris F.

"My husband and I enjoyed working with Jesse on our first dance. He helped us to put together relaxed choreography that we were comfortable with doing in front of everyone. We would highly recommend working with Jesse on your first dance or just to some have fun!"
- Emily & Dave C.

"My dad and I wanted to do an upbeat swing dance for our father/daughter dance at my wedding, and Jesse came highly recommended as an instructor. He has a great philosophy about dance, a terrific sense of humor and a hands-on approach to teaching – which is exactly what we needed! At every lesson, he was patient, positive and professional. He provided specific and helpful feedback, and even a few simple exercises to help us correct habits. The lessons were a lot of fun and our wedding guests were impressed with our new moves!"
- Jamie & Craig K.

"I give Jesse's dance instructor talents a 5 star out of 5.  He's simply excellent.  He's patient, detailed (can feel, see, detect, and review every aspect of your moves to assess improvement), time conscience (makes sure he's on time for every single lesson and expects the same of the student), well-trained (he's highly skilled in so many different styles of dancing.  I was focused on just salsa style but he introduced me to the Latin & swing styles of dance as well), and he worked very well with my level of experience and helped me elevate my dance talents to a more consistent and deliberate style. I came to him with some level of experience and my goal was to increase my following (being led) skills, which I did complete that goal.  I also came to him with experience with at least 4 other dance instructors.  I am an adult student who got into partner dancing only about three years ago so I needed much help in the beginning.  Learning with Jesse increased my skills more rapidly because he taught me the details and intentions of the various moves and dances (as opposed to just teaching me routines).  I will use Jesse again for dance lessons.  Very professional and talented."

"Thank you so much for the dance lessons. We had so much fun during the lessons learning new steps and hanging out with you! We really appreciate the help for our first dance at our wedding. It was a big hit and we had so much fun. Our guests were impressed with our dance skills and we were able to use the moves throughout the night during other dances. Thank you! Hopefully we'll be back once life calms a little for some salsa or other dance lessons!"
- Kasha S. & Matt P.

"Jesse is not only a great dancer, he is an amazing teacher. I came in thinking of salsa as a glittery superficial fling and left with a whole new life philosophy. But it was not just philosophy - Jesse taught me the moves and customized the difficulty to my ability and my desire to do or not to do something advanced. His light and easy going personality was very helpful at that - he just threw me into the swirl of dance and taught me how to follow and to relax in the absolute unknown of what's coming next at you. A learning that travels way beyond dancing! That's the greatest value, regardless of how many moves you learn by heart. Thank you!"

We began taking lessons with Jesse to get ready for our wedding - we wanted to make sure that our first dance was one to remember. We started taking lessons about 4-6 weeks before our 'big day', and Jesse got us ready in no time. Not only did we nail down our first dance, but we learned a few other moves to break out on the dance floor at our wedding as well - it was a hit! Since we had so much fun working with Jesse, we decided to continue taking lessons, learning hustle, swing, salsa and bachata. We've been able to use everything we learned at weddings, out at night, and just about anywhere else we hear music. We HIGHLY recommend Jesse for weddings, or just to get out and have some fun!
