Testimonials
Cornelia Poncos30 December 2024 JoseSanDance salsa dance classes are of exceptional quality. With the support of his talented and beautiful assistants Laren, Stephanie, Sandra, and Victoria 😊, Jose's classes are always filled with exciting moves, spins, great music, and an overall feel-good vibe. I especially love the trio of group lessons he offers on Thursdays: Partnerwork-Level 1, Footwork and Styling, and Partnerwork-Level 2. This combination not only offers comprehensive dance classes but also provides a fantastic workout for the body and mind, while delighting the ears. The classes are incredibly energetic and fun! The Footwork and Styling class, in particular, is a burst of high energy, challenging you to keep up with the rhythm while refining your style. Once a month, he offers a well-crafted 3-hour salsa intensive that I've become addicted to. 😊 Many thanks to Jose Sandoval School of Dance, the amazing instructors, their dedication and passion. Wishing you a Happy New Year and a busy 2025!

Thanks so much Sharyn! having students like you that value technique and style is also insipiring for the instructors, because we know that working on technique will get you really far! See you next class =D Ulises Gonzalez8 October 2024 Having private bachata lessons with Jose lately has been an absolute joy and I can really say it's among the best things I have ever done! His lessons are really lively, entertaining, and have a playful attitude that helps you forget you are even learning. From the first lesson, Jose has this remarkable way of putting you at ease, which made me feel reassured by his professionalism and years of experience. You truly know you're in good hands. After the day's lesson, he delivers these incredible videos capturing the dance that lets you see your development and consider any areas that might want improvement. This is a great approach for ongoing learning even in between sessions. Jose is also one of the most patient and dedicated instructors I’ve met. He won't rush you and he won't move on until you feel secure and comfortable with the foundations. Every level seems doable because of his integrity and determination; by the time you are ready for more difficult movements, you will be completely ready. Whether you enjoy dancing or are a total beginner, Jose is absolutely recommended by me to anyone. He will demonstrate to you that dancing is nothing to be afraid of and will set you in a position whereby you can proudly dance in the real world. Jose, thank you for your patience and help in making every class unforgettable. More sessions excite me already and I look forward to having more classes with you in the future!

Jose’s passion for salsa not only shows in his own fantastic dancing, but in the way he teaches his students. His enthusiasm and positivity inspire excitement about learning salsa. This, along with Jose’s skill and focus as a coach, create the perfect environment for growth in dancing. I came to Jose with no dance background, and in a few weeks my salsa has improved so much!
