Sarah came and presented at the Women in Management Club at The University at Buffalo. She gave an incredibly moving discussion on how to handle day-to-day life, while finding motivation and following your heart and intuition. It was amazing getting to hear Sarah's story and her enthusiasm was unmatched. Our members loved the presentation and we are so grateful for her time!

Wow- we can’t say enough about Sarah!!! She prepped us for our wedding day First Dance and we got so much more out of our session than we anticipated. It felt natural and fun to try different positions and moves, plus she applied everything to our everyday lives and showed us how things like communication and support can make a whole lot more sense through movement versus talking about it or reading books. If you’re considering a private lesson with your partner- just go for it! We had so much fun we didn’t even realize how much valuable insight to our relationship we were gaining- plus our

I’m currently a college student who seeked out Sarah for help with a Latino Dance Night. She was extremely sweet and enthusiastic when it came to helping me plan. Her two dancers (Jerome and Janice) were the ones who taught at our event. As a Latino who knew a thing or two about dance (bachata, merengue, and salsa) I was very impressed. I learned so much in just the two hours that they taught. We had over 80 students attend and they all reacted very well to their energy. They were helpful and knew to how to get a group moving. Sarah made it very easy for us to plan this event and we could not

I highly recommend Sarah’s dance lessons!. You will learn the basic steps as well as her sweet way of approaching partner dancing. Learning how to trust is an important part of every lesson- whether you are a leader or a follower. She is so patient (even if you feel somewhat reluctant 😏) you will feel at ease and any nervousness will be put to rest. Her partner, Jerome, is equally talented and patient. The two of them create a great atmosphere and made me feel a lot less anxious about dancing. Just a beautiful asset in our community.

Me and my girlfriend experienced Salsa for the Soul with Sarah, as an early birthday present to my girlfriend, and had a wonderful time! Sarah taught us many expert Salsa dance moves for couples that we could expose on the dance floor with but as well many expert tips on connecting better as a couple in everyday life through the power of dance. Sarah is a patience, understanding and attentive dance teacher with a fun personal way of teaching that makes the experience extra jovial:) This is a great one hour birthday gift to give to your significant other, that will last a lifetime!
P.S. be sure

I have had many interactions with Sarah over the years. Being an avid salsa dancer and a member of the local Latino community, I have been afforded the opportunity to watch her interact with many diverse groups. From these experiences, I had decided to ask Sarah to conduct a class at a recent event with the Rwandan community of Buffalo. She was friendly, pleasant and encouraged the group to participate. Her lesson was at the beginning of the event and most attendees were seated in their chairs. She motivated the crowd to join her in a comfortable and relaxed way. I knew the group had never been

I have had the pleasure of attending multiple workshops with Sarah both dancing and mindfulness! She is simply amazing! You feel a sense of peace and confidence in her space and it is evident she knows what she is talking about. What is even more impressive is that she lives what she preaches! I highly recommend Sarah for any dance or mindfulness workshop, you WON’T regret it!!!

Sarah and Jerome came to our school to instruct a large group of our students on how to do the salsa, merengue, and the bachata. The students were shy at first, but Sarah and Jerome really got them to open up and feel more comfortable with partner dancing. Overall, the students and teachers enjoyed themselves and we are looking forward to having them back next year!

As a Latin dance instructor as well, I have observed and taken Sarah's dance classes. She is very knowledgeable, inviting, and personable, and provides a fun class with a welcoming atmosphere for all. Her love for dance and inspiring others shines through in all her classes and performances! I'm grateful to have her in the Buffalo dance community.

Sarah is a wonderful person inside and she is also a wonderful instructor.
I started salsa group lessons with Sarah knowing very little. She keeps you motivated and is always positive.
My fiance and I have known her for almost a year and not only does she offer classes but also Special salsa events, come alone and dance with others or bring a partner.
A lot of people don't know this but there's no need to always have one single dance partner especially in salsa we all are friends and dance together.

My boyfriend and I took private salsa lessons from Sarah in the fall of 2014. It was a gift from my boyfriend to me, and I was pretty apprehensive going into the first lesson. It didn't take long before I realized that all of my anxiety was for nothing; Sarah is amazing! Every lesson with her was a fantastic learning experience and so much fun.

While we were taking the lessons, we were also in the middle of a cross-country move, we had to put a beloved pet to sleep, and in general my boyfriend and I were losing our minds. These lessons were better than relationship counseling and really
