Testimonials

Athena is an amazing teacher and dancer who can turn mechanical, tentative dancers into sassy, stylin' salseros in no time.  Her incredible sense of rhythm, interpretation of the music, innovative moves, combined with her great teaching style, make learning salsa fun.

    -Diane, RN

I've seen a lot of Salsa instructors teach, and I was very impressed with the clarity and thoroughness of Athena and Josh's explanations of moves, not to mention their relaxed tone and fun-loving attitude.

Athena is far and away the best instructor I've had. She is thoroughly knowledgeable, very clear, and most importantly for me, a kind, gentle, and patient teacher, making lessons a genuine pleasure.

   -Rob, University Professor

I felt like Athena and Josh sincerely cared that we all understood the dance steps and they have patience, lots of patience!

Athena is an unbelievable teacher! I have seen many students claim they can't dance and with a little time, she has proven them wrong! Many salsa teachers will only teach you steps-- she teaches you how to put them together and make them yours. She taught me so well that I'm now a Salsa teacher myself!

    -Sorrel, Salsa Instructor

I especially enjoyed the individual attention in group classes.  The pace and energy are perfect.  You can't help leaving the class and wanting to Salsa!

    -A.J., Teacher

Athena and Josh made the class.  They were awesome.  I learned a lot and they're both funny.  The light hearted atmosphere really helped me.  Athena and Josh expressed the moves clearly and really took the time to practice with each of us.

   -Pooja, Student

Athena is a very patient dance instructor. I had never danced Casino Rueda before and she was able to take me from a beginner to an advanced dancer in a very short period of time. She knows how to break down the steps and makes learning a fun experience. I always felt very comfortable with Athena and appreciated her high energy and love for Latin dance. I would highly recommend her as an instructor.

    Entertainment

What I enjoy most about the group classes at Salsita Dance Studio are the small class size, the relaxed atmosphere and the individual attention.

   -Andy, Graduate Student

The personal attention impressed me most.  The class was fun and friendly.  It was great way to start each week!

  -Nicole, Attorney

The atmosphere is really relaxed and Athena and Josh are extremely knowledgeable.  They really took the time to explain each step.  The class was wonderful.
