Coach Rae is amazing!!! After one session I am already looking forward to the next session. Coach Rae walked into the session prepared with material I expressed interest in learning and a song I wanted to dance to. She related the steps she taught to moves I already knew. I learned a ton,had a blast, and can't wait for the next lesson!!
