My Ballroom Dance Services!!!

I make things simple and I am simply here to help you with your dancing.  Nothing would give me more satisfaction knowing that ballroom dancing has touched and enriched your lives!

I have many many references if you like to get to know me better before employing my services.  Please let me know.

Ballroom Dance Lessons:

I offer private ballroom dance lessons at $45 for a full hour of coaching at my place, not 45 minutes or so from most other instructors at a much higher price (usually $65 - $75 there).  I only charge for my time, not the number of people attending (limits apply), so singles and couples are welcome to share the expense.  I'll show you the steps, the routines, the partnering, the styling, the proper technique, the characteristics of the dances, ... the works!  I guarantee top-quality lessons well worth your time and money!

For outgoing visits, I charge $55 per hour for the lessons.  You will be responsible for any applicable floor fee if the lesson is conducted outside my home studio.

Showcases:

My partner(s) and I are available for bookings of ballroom dance shows.  Our shows are perfect for corporate and private functions, as well as other special events, such as weddings, anniversaries, and grand openings, etc.  Again, my partner and I only charge for our time to make the appearance at $55 an hour, with no other charges, provided that airfares and lodging are not needed on our travels.  Our travel time will be billed as a part of the appearance. 

Competition and Performance Dancing:

Whether you need a dance professional to participate in pro-am dance competitions or to perform with you at your very own showcase, I am here for you.

My pro-am competition fees: $5 per entry (single-dance event) or per dance (multi-dance event).  Students cover all entry fees including registrations and admissions, and cover/share my travel expenses, if any.  There are no other fees other than the ones mentioned above.  Notice that for comps, I don't charge by the time spent but by entries.

My fee: If you need me to perform with you at your showcase, I only charge for my time at $55 per hour to make the appearance, since this is an outgoing visit.  My travel time will be billed as a part of the appearance.

Dance Choreography:

Whether you are a novice or advanced dancer, if you need help or a second opinion on your dance choreography for your own showcase or dance competition or simply want to brush up and improve your dance routines, I am here to help.  I will focus on your strengths, as well as the areas of improvements and work with you one-on-one to add the latest and most popular styles to your routines that are consistent to your levels and abilities so that you can enjoy your dancing even more!  Like a private lesson, it is $45 per hour.

Dance Critique:

Are you looking for a Critique of your dance competition or performance?  Send us a video of your performance either on DVD, YouTube, VHS tape, or a link to your video files, we will critique it and offer you key instructions on how to improve the important aspects in the movements, styles, techniques and floor crafts needed to further your dancing to a higher level of performance and presentation.  The cost will be $25 per dance.

Dance Hosting/Dance Companion for Hire:

We offer our dance hosting service, that is, a dance host, dance consultant and dance companion for hire for special events, practices, or just an evening of great dancing!  For $55 an hour, you may employ me or a lady dance host for that special event as your attentive dance partner for the evening to wow your friends, for a few hours of skilled practice time, or simply for an evening of wonderfully fun social dancing!  We'll attend to your every dancing need with our valuable experience, skills, friendly advice and supportive yet humorous manner.  Experience an unforgettable evening and a wonderful feeling of what you never thought possible on the dance floor through the magic of ballroom dancing!  We specialize in and perform this service, with strict rules, fine social ettiquette and utmost professionalism to guarantee the highest quality of service!  You will gain a lot from it!  You alone or several of you can share this service.  You cover all admissions.  Our travel is a part of our time to be billed.

No secret party is allowed for this service.  All events and locations must be revealed prior to being accepted, to guarantee safety, integrity, comfort and proper appearances/attires for all participants.  No smoking, heavy drinking, drug use and/or other offensive behaviors are allowed.
