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!
