About
With over 10 years of teaching partner dancing, my name is Anastasia. I take pleasure in motivating my students to step outside their comfort zones and learn new things. From Latin styles like salsa, swing, and rumba to elegant ballroom dances like the waltz and foxtrot, I can impart all techniques in a simple and amusing way. You don't need a partner or prior experience since I will aid you in every step (pun intended). Whether you want to dance socially, for weddings, or competitions, I guarantee a customized approach to each lesson that considers your needs and goals.

I am extremely satisfied with my decision to choose Anastasia as my private dance instructor. Despite feeling intimidated by dancing, I was relieved to find a professional and down-to-earth teacher who prioritized my comfort level while also delivering high-quality lessons. Anastasia tailors her teaching approach to the unique needs of each student and works at a pace that is appropriate for their goals, while also pushing them to expand their abilities and prepare for larger events like showcases and ballroom dance parties. Through these lessons, I have not only been introduced to and mastered various dances, but also immersed myself in the culture and community of dance. This provides long-term goals that increase the pace of progress, eventually leading to opportunities to participate in competitions. In just three months, I have already learned a variety of dances to a level where I feel confident dancing in public settings. While there is always more to learn in the world of dance, I am confident that sticking with Anastasia means continued improvement and development beyond what I initially thought possible. I highly recommend her as a dance instructor and would give her a perfect 10/10 rating.

Anastasia is an exceptional teacher who assisted us in creating a flawless dance routine for our wedding! In just 60 minutes, even someone like myself, who has little experience, was able to learn the choreography effortlessly. She made us feel at ease and tailored the lesson to our abilities. I strongly suggest Anastasia for anyone in need of an amazing instructor!

Anastasia exceeded our expectations! As beginners, we decided to tackle a complex routine for our first wedding dance with limited time, but Anastasia came through. She devoted additional time outside of our sessions to ensure that each minute we spent together was optimized, resulting in exceptional value. Her approach is both enjoyable and focused - a perfect combination that made our wedding dance a success. Thanks to her guidance, we had a blast dancing throughout the night, effortlessly applying the basic dance elements she imparted to us. We highly recommend taking advantage of the opportunity to work with her!

Earlier this year, my new girlfriend and I attended a couple of weddings where I found myself lacking the confidence to dance with her. This prompted me to seek out dance lessons, and after some quick research, I discovered Anastasia. Despite having no prior dance experience, Anastasia was thrilled to work with me and saw it as an opportunity to start fresh without any bad habits or techniques to correct. Her teaching style is engaging, and she simplifies the steps for me to understand. She even assigns me dance "homework" to practice at home and offers tips for dancing with partners outside of our lessons. Being a busy student with work and social obligations, her flexibility in scheduling has been instrumental in my progress. Although taking up dance lessons has been a challenge, it has been one of the most rewarding and fulfilling decisions of 2021.

While searching for a midweek adventure, my girlfriend and I stumbled upon the idea of dance lessons. Being unfamiliar with the dancing community, we ended up with Anastasia (and occasionally Enoch) based on their positive feedback. It turned out to be the perfect choice. Anastasia possesses exceptional talent in making a dance lesson both enjoyable and fruitful for a socially awkward person like myself. We indulged in weekly lessons for quite some time, primarily focusing on tango. Our classes were filled with laughter and knowledge. Unfortunately, life happened, along with the pandemic, and we fell behind on our dance sessions. Despite that, we remembered enough tango moves to showcase during extraordinary weddings. However, when my girlfriend became my fiancé, we required someone to help us orchestrate a wedding routine. And we couldn't imagine anyone better than Anastasia and Enoch. Fortuitously, they had not only stayed in town, but also opened their studio nearby. We would've gone the distance to work with them. Anastasia tailored an incredible routine precisely aligned with our music selection. We now relish practicing in their new studio even more than the previous one. We eagerly anticipate our upcoming rehearsals each week. Without a doubt, for anyone wanting to learn any type of dance, I wholeheartedly recommend EA Dance Art. Anastasia and Enoch are not only exceptional teachers but also exceptional human beings. Our experience with them deserves a six-star rating, if it were possible.
