My husband and I have been taking weekly private couples lessons with Suzanne for over two years, and have been thoroughly impressed. When we first took dance lessons over 25 years ago, we thought our instructor was great. But after working with Suzanne we see what a truly gifted teacher can offer.

Suzanne is patient when we repeat mistakes or demonstrate "fish memory,"
