Hello!
    Whether you are looking for ballroom dance lessons or you have been dancing for years, I would love to meet you! I look forward to working with you as you embark on your exciting adventure. I teach beginners through competitive dance . I offer ballroom dance classes and lessons for adults in the Boise, Idaho area. (Including Meridian, Eagle, Nampa, and more!)
     Ballroom dancing is such an amazing feat! It is a couples dance as well as an improvisational dance. This sets it apart from other dance forms, which depend on choreography to determine a sequence of patterns.
     I like to say that learning ballroom dance is challenging, but fun work. You are dancing with your partner and for your partner. This is why dancing is not to be a grim experience but a fun activity! Studies have shown that ballroom dance in specific, is beneficial to both your brain as well as your body.
  I provide all the tools you need to become either a serious or social dancer. You and I work together and customize the program to meet your needs.
   If you have the strong desire to dance well, I would love to help you reach your goals! I have affordable group and private lesson rates. My progressive curriculum will get you where you want to be. Join me for group classes at the beautiful spacious studio in Meridian.

Who am I?
    I am one of only a few credentialed ballroom instructors in the state of Idaho. What this means to you is that I have taken rigorous examinations to attain this certification. I have over 20 years of teaching experience and have earned professional medals. I have ballroom competition background in both Pro/Am and Pro/Pro. Because I personally believe that good instructors need to be continually learning, I have also received,and still receive coaching from some of America’s finest professional dancers. I teach all syllabi patterns that are accepted by the National Dance Council of America.

"My wife and I have been taking dance classes with Lori for over a year and a half. We like the way she teaches. She is patient, thorough, and is always willing to work with you until you have things right. She charges reasonable rates on a monthly basis and does not require you to have a contract. I very much appreciate that I am not forced to change partners continuously. I am able to dance with my wife, who is my partner. If I do need Lori as a partner to help me learn a pattern I am having trouble with, then she is always willing to help. Its pretty obvious that Lori enjoys teaching, and that makes the classes fun."

    "This has been an incredible experience for us!!! My husband started class with absolutely no
dance / music experience and had difficulty with rhythm and beats.
Lori was very patient with both of us and always encouraging. There were times when I thought that we would never be able to grasp it, but we did!! And 6 months into the program we are loving it!!! (Can't get enough.) It has brought us closer!!! We've made great friends and have a lot to look forward too! "
