     "My husband gave me the best gift ever when he bought private ballroom dance lessons for my birthday. I was so excited and on our first visit we both walked away loving it! We wished we would have known about this before we were married so that we could have been prepared to dance well for our wedding. We love that the studio is private because we have Rebecca's full attention and we can work at our own pace. We feel very comfortable with her and her instruction is very easy to follow and learn. We have focused mainly on learning swing, salsa, and fox trot, but we also tried tango, rumba, waltz and two step. Whatever you want to learn Rebecca will know it and will know it well. We would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to learn how to dance and dance well!" ~Keisha Momoh, Aberdeen SD

    "We thoroughly enjoy our dance lessons with Rebecca. She is very patient and supportive for beginners and creates an atmosphere that encourages students so they don't feel embarrassed. Rebecca is able to make dancing a reality for you and not just for other people. One of her strongest qualities is her ability to break down the dance patterns into manageable bite-size steps in terms that you will understand—she is sensitive to the students' needs, as well as being flexible with scheduling lessons around their busy lifestyles. So if you are like us who envied people on the ballroom dance floor—while on vacation cruises or at weddings, holiday parties, etc.—Rebecca is the one person who can get you out there feeling comfortable and looking good. For you guys, I've actually learned ballroom dancing! It took some time and practice along with patient instruction from Rebecca, but I have the confidence now to get up on any dance floor anywhere." ~Marian and Richard Dixon, Houston, Texas

     "We had talked about learning ballroom dancing for years, but had just never found the right teacher until we found The Dance Whisperer! Rebecca offers the perfect mix of instruction, innovation and fun to keep us coming back for more. We aren't Dancing-With-the-Stars material, but we have learned all of the ballroom basics in the foxtrot, swing, rumba, and tango. We love being able to dance at weddings, on cruises, and we are not too shabby at parties. Last Saturday we went to a dance and the hostess commented that we were actually great dancers. Truly amazing. All of the credit goes to Rebecca. She is fantastic!~Jean Calloway, Calloway Stinson & Co., Houston, Texas

     "Rebecca, aka The Dance Whisperer, is the perfect dance instructor. Not only do you learn how to dance, you have a great time doing it. She is terrific at explaining the steps and the transitions from one move to another - no matter the dance (Fox Trot, Waltz, Samba... you name it.) Rebecca makes sure you understand and are comfortable with what you have just learned before adding more steps to the mix. But she is also quite adept at guiding you to a higher level. The next thing you know, you are dancing! You won't be disappointed." ~Stephennie Anderson, Houston Texas

     "If you're one of those people who dread the special events in your life where dance floors are involved along with hordes of long-lost family members and other strangers, then you have come to the right website. Or, if you get that sinking feeling when your significant other tugs your arm and says 'oh, honey, let's dance!' and your response is to drag your two left feet out onto the dance floor and do a bad imitation of the seventh grade shuffle, then The Dance Whisperer offers salvation. Unlike that other 'whisperer', Rebecca will not teach you to sit, beg or stay but she will teach you to waltz, foxtrot and rumba. And if your experience is anything like ours, you will have a wonderful time learning. It is fun, exhilarating and, when we leave each lesson, we marvel at how quickly the time has gone by and how much we can't wait to go back. But the very best part of it all, is that now we love getting out on the dance floor and having fun. Our dread is gone and our groove is on!" ~Devoted Dance Student Who Used to Hate the Waltz, Houston TX

   "Dear Dance Whisperer, it seems like only yesterday that I arrived at your dance studio with Jay, my two left feet, and an overwhelming sense of foreboding. Since I had never taken dance lessons in my life, I had no idea what to expect. Luckily, you have an incredible ability to put people instantly at ease and I left that first lesson with the sense that I should have tried this many, many years ago. Now two years later, I'm still learning and, if possible, enjoying it more than ever. What a gift you have, not only of being able to adapt your teaching methods to each individual but also to make the experience so much fun. I think we had a preconceived notion that if we learned to 'dance', we would end up looking stilted or affected or just plain out of place. Now we've learned that we can master the steps of the waltz, tango, foxtrot, rumba and swing and still have a wonderful time. When we do mess up, which is often, we simply laugh and keep on moving. Thank you so very much for sharing your gift with us. I hope everyone reading this will take advantage of your skill and patience and have as many years with you as we plan to.~Cathy West, Houston, Texas

     "My husband and I have wanted to take up ballroom dancing for some time, and we started taking lessons with Rebecca just after Valentine's Day. So far we have focused on foxtrot, waltz, and swing and are truly enjoying it. The private studio and expert, personalized instruction have really helped us to feel relaxed and to make the most of our time! Makes an excellent date night activity.~Laura Palmer, Houston Texas
