Testimonials from Gunn's Students

  • It has been years since I danced and I didn't know if I'd like group dance lessons. Gunn's lessons are very well presented and everyone in the class is so friendly. Now I don't feel uncomfortable on the dance floor any more and I am meeting lots of fun people too.
  • Gunn is a terrific instructor. She is patient (VERY patient!) and encouraging. We felt comfortable from the first lesson and have greatly improved our dancing abilities.
  • I NEVER thought my husband would ever learn how to dance. One dance class with Gunn and he was hooked. Gunn is a fabulous dance instructor who makes everyone feel at ease. The lessons are conveniently located and we just love it!
  • Dancing at weddings and on cruises was out of the question before we took dance lessons from Gunn. Now, we attended 3 weddings this year and danced at every one of them. Even got many compliments. Thank you Gunn!
  • Not only is dancing great exercise but the dance parties are great. Never met so many nice friendly people.
  • With ballroom dancing making a big comeback, it is almost a necessity to learn at least the basics. Gunn's instruction is great (and reasonable) - both group lessons and private lessons in her studio have made me a much better dancer.

You've heard from Gunn's students, so don't just sit there!
Join us for a dance class this week and see for yourself how easy and FUN it is to learn how to dance!
