I grew up in San Francisco and Calistoga, starting my dancing about 9 years ago in Santa Rosa and San Francisco. I first saw Salsa Dancing in a movie and was immediately drawn to it and wanted to learn. Starting on1 and then learning on2, I was completely hooked to the sound and movement of salsa.

Over and over again my friends were raving about how great it is to be dancing with CDA, and I was itching to try something new, so I came to an audition. I was instantly captivated by Luis's teaching style and movement technique. I love the passion he puts into teaching his teams, how he is constantly encouraging us to do our best and even better! My own personal dancing technique improves with every class.
