Testimonials

"I have trained and danced with Pat for ten years. He is skilled at tailoring his teaching to a student's needs. But more importantly, he is fun!"

"I was first introduced to Pat through a workshop at our church. After taking several workshops, I decided it was time to challenge myself and take my dancing to the next level. So I started taking private lessons. I've been doing so for almost two years. Pat makes learning fun, and does so in a very comfortable, non-threatening environment."

"I started out as a swing and country western dancer, but I always had an interest in ballroom dancing. When I met Pat I really admired his style and grace when dancing. I soon started taking lessons with him in Latin and Ballroom. He's taught me excellent technique and also how to use dancing as a form of self-expression. Pat is excellent at teaching students of all levels - from the complete beginner to the more experienced dancer."

"My husband surprised me with dance lessons for our wedding anniversary. Many times I would comment on how well some people danced together at social events and was afraid that, when our children married, we'd be still doing the same junior high dance! I guess he finally got the hint. We continued with lessons as a hobby. It truly gave my husband the confidence to get out on the dance floor. Dancing became my outlet for a crazy, and sometimes stress-filled, life. It was a healthy alternative to therapy, and I often commented to Patrick that dance lessons were cheaper than therapy. I continue to dance as a great source of fun and exercise. It builds confidence and allows you to meet some wonderful people."

"For many years, I dreamed of learning to dance. It started with a recommendation from a friend that I should try a dance social hosted weekly by Patrick Piazza. I approached Patrick and explained to him my dream of being a great social dancer, with the ability to do all of the smooth and rhythm dances, as well as country and western. We scheduled my first lesson a few weeks later. I have been taking lessons ever since. I have been learning just about every type of partner dance, as both a leader and a follower. Through dancing, I have built my social skills and my confidence. I have met a lot of great people, and have made a number of very good friends. Patrick's style of teaching is adaptive, progressive, simple, and fun! I am now progressing into the more advanced levels of the dances, and loving every minute of it. Dancing has become a part of my soul. Patrick gets my highest recommendation."
