Testimonials from people who have taken youtube classes:

“I love taking these classes, which allow me learn at my own pace and when I have free time.  You always break things down and explain the details extremely well.  Your clear instruction and the ability to review specific movements and transitions is a very effective format.  It works well both for something that I haven’t done much since 2006, when I last took Rumba and Afro-Cuban classes with you, and it is also works well for Samba Rio and Samba Reggae, which I have been doing more of recently.  The dances are all incredibly fun, physically and mentally challenging, and a great way to exercise, which is what we all need during this time.  I know that these classes take a lot of time and energy to prepare, and I am so grateful to you for doing this!”

House – “Highly recommended for anyone who wants to expand their house vocabulary! Donna does a great job of introducing steps in an accessible way and breaking down variations. This class gave me a lot to practice on my own, and a bunch of fun choreography that challenged me to pull all the concepts together and add my own style. I also really appreciated Donna’s thoughtful feedback on the weekly homework assignments; it was very motivating to have something specific to work on!”
Samba – “so much fun, thank you for offering this!”
