    This was a wonderful class! My boyfriend and I had a great time learning Merengue. The instructor and staff were welcoming and made the whole experience lighthearted and informative. If you're looking for a fun class to learn a few moves, this is definitely a good choice. I plan to take more classes here in the future!

    My wife loves dancing, so I knew she'd enjoy this class for her birthday. This particular session only had two couples, which made the experience more intimate. The experience was BYOB and while we did't bring any beverages, the other couple was happy to share some of their wine. It felt like the class ended just as we were getting the moves down, so I wish it would have been a little longer, but otherwise a great experience. We plan to do more in the future.
