At our dance studio, we take pleasure in introducing individuals to the delightful world of Ballroom, Latin, and Swing dancing! Our focus is on helping beginners build fundamental skills and fostering greater competency in those already familiar with the basics by honing their technique.
Located in the scenic Pacific Northwest, we offer both private and group lessons. Our group classes take place at The Vancouver Fitness Studio, Clark College Community Ed, and Longview's McClelland Center Parks & Recs, as well as dances in North Portland and Vancouver. Joseph has been teaching ballroom dance for his entire adult life and Julieann for over 12 years.
PRIVATE LESSONS are located in VANCOUVER, WA 98662, just east of I205. They are a perfect way to get started with learning the fundamental dance skills such as partner hold, movement, and etiquette. Away from the commotion of group classes, our students can focus closely on the core aspects of their dancing. As instructors, we can analyze what changes are required to ensure their success.
Our students frequently regard our lessons as the most enjoyable and comprehensive in the Portland/ Vancouver area, enabling thousands to improve their dance skills and derive all the advantages.
Looking forward to embarking on your dance journey with us!
Best Regards, Julieann and Joseph Platt

As novice dancers seeking a new activity for date nights, my wife and I chose Julieann as our instructor and have been delighted with her skills. Her welcoming and non-judgmental approach provided us with a supportive environment to begin our dance journey. Additionally, Julieann's one-on-one instruction gave us the confidence to learn and have fun at the same time. We couldn't be happier with our choice!

I had a dance lesson with Julieann where I acquired knowledge in three 1-step dances namely, merengue, waltz, and swing. The experience was delightful and I am eagerly awaiting my next lesson.

To enhance my ballroom dancing abilities, I reached out to Julieann to receive training. Although I had knowledge of the fundamentals of several dances, I desired to ameliorate my techniques, hone my skills further, and obtain concentrated rehearsal. Julieann proved to be an impeccable selection! Her curriculum contains dance maneuvers that she adeptly guides her students through. The lessons she provides comprise a blend of acquiring novel proficiencies and practicing them to music. A patient instructor with a lively persona, Julieann is an outstanding candidate to learn from. I wholeheartedly vouch for Julieann as an exemplary dance instructor.

Julieann's talent is exceptional.
Despite scheduling our lesson last minute before our wedding and selecting a more difficult song to dance to without realizing it, Julieann exceeded our expectations. She devised an achievable choreography and instructed us on how to execute it with ease. As a teacher, she provides both guidance and encouragement, equipping her students with the tools and self-assurance needed to dance gracefully. Additionally, Julieann is highly professional and responsive.
For anyone seeking dance lessons, we highly recommend booking with Julieann.

Despite feeling quite nervous about our first lesson, Julieann and Joseph did an excellent job of putting us at ease. Our goal was to choreograph a dance routine to an electronic dance music (EDM) track, which we entrusted to Julieann. Not only did she exceed our expectations with a plethora of fantastic ideas, but she also allowed us the freedom to interpret the song in our own unique way. Needless to say, we're eagerly looking forward to our upcoming lessons and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this experience to anyone. Trust us, it's definitely worth it!
