What Memorial students say
This review isn't for just Fred Astaire, but for Coral and Evan. They are such amazing teachers.
Be me; introverted, zero rhythm, an inability to remember more than two steps in a routine, and zero confidence to be on the dance floor. I was worried about being treated like I was working with a drill instructor. This was not the case.
Meet Evan and Coral. They were so patient, very thorough, and so much fun. They worked so hard to teach me and my wife various dance styles and eventually the dance routine to be used at our wedding. We wowed our wedding guests with our dance routine and gave us confidence to be on the dance floor all night. We owe this to Evan and Coral. If you are even remotely interested in dancing, but worried about how you get taught, this is the place for you.
Always kind and supportive!!!🧡🩷❤️
