Mari Danse

I love Maria!!! I love to dance and my friend told me to go to her classes and now I look forward to all my dancing sessions. She is an amazing teacher and dancer. Salsa, bachata whatever you want she does it beautifully! She’s patient and has great motivation to get you to be a better dancer. I’ve already recommended her to a handful of my friends. A must try if you like to dance

I met Maria through my wife. My wife is been taking dance classes with her. I saw Maria’s dance performance many times and she is an amazing dancer. Her dance performances inspired me to start to take dance class with her. She is an amazing dancer and dance teacher. She is very patient and her dance classes are so much fun. I highly recommend her if you want to become a good dancer. Now me and my wife have been taking Maria’s dance classes together every week. We can’t wait to take her next class and improve our dance skills. Highly recommend Mari Danse!

Maria is amazing!!! She is an awesome dancer and teacher. I’ve learned a lot from her. She is such an inspiration! Her dance classes made me become a better dancer. Highly recommend!!! Maria is awesome!!!

Maria is AMAZING!!! We got so lucky finding her through Unilocal.She worked with us for several weeks leading up to our wedding for our first dance. My husband wanted to do a bachata that looked so hard and neither one of us had ever danced before. Maria made it happen! She choreographed the entire dance for us, found the music and taught us how to actually make it look good! She was patient, fun, warm, caring, professional, always on time and her style of teaching makes it fun, and easy.
We danced the bachata at our wedding, she even helped us practice moments before. Everyone loved our dance! Most importantly, WE loved it!
We decided to keep taking classes with Maria bc our experience was so good. She is now teaching us how to salsa! Maria, thank you! You are such a beautiful person and dedicated teacher. You brought something beautiful to our lives.

Maria is an awesome dancer and teacher. If you want to learn technique, shes definitely the one! I can feel and see her passion for dance and she exudes great energy that she passes on to her students. I love watching her dance and teach the class. I like that she spends time to explain the body movements so that you’ll do them correctly. At the end of the class, I always feel I want more! She inspires me to move like she does. Love, love her ladies styling! And would definitely highly recommend her!

I started dancing salsa few years ago and I met Maria at one of the local latin clubs. The place was crowded, but Immediately she stood out. I approached Maria and found out that she is a professional dancer with more than 15 years of experience in latin dance. I was not surprised, as this was obvious by her dancing. I’ve been her fan ever since and I am always happy to hear about her new and always higher achievements (she is currently the Cha-​cha cha World Champion). I started taking classes with Maria and that alone bumped my dance level higher than ever before. Her teaching is very effective as she takes into consideration your level and abilities and modifies things according to that. What makes Maria stand out among other popular professional latin dancers is her gorgeous styling and highly professional execution of each move. Also Maria is a super sweet person, which makes her classes a great experience. She is my dance inspiration and I am glad that I met her. Well worth all the time and money spent.

Maria’s Cha cha performance with Christian, in Chicago was Epic! Beautiful and talented!

Maria is not only a very talented professional dancer but she is also an amazing teacher. The moment you meet her, you will spot her passion and love for dance. I was excited to learn how to salsa, but after my class with Maria I left even more determined and excited to learn. Her energy is contagious and you can’t help but feel inspired to move. This comes from the fact that she is very knowledgeable, patient and understanding.
As a beginner, I really did not know what to expect from her classes, but Maria instantly made me feel at ease and showed me how fun learning to dance could really be. I’m now looking forward to our next class and I would highly recommend her as an instructor, dancer, choreographer and performer.

Maria is a very talented and professional dancer. I have know her for a long time. She really loves dancing and she is doing that great. You will be happy to take her classes!

Maria is the best dance teacher ever! I am a beginner yet she explains everything great. Enjoyable class!

Mari is one of the best dance teachers I have ever met. She has been teaching my husband and I salsa for the past 6 months and you should see us dance. We started from the basic and in a matter of 3 months we had an amazing performance where we had to perform in front of a crowd. My husband had no previous experience or talent in dancing and she truly has transformed him. She is strict but sweet and will not let you go until you get the steps right. We enjoyed her classes so much that we have hired her again for more dance lessons. We love, love, love her!!! You should see her dance, amazing!!! She recently won first prize in world salsa competition. I highly recommend her for young kids or adults.

I LOVE Maria’s classes!!! It doesn’t matter, if you just starting dancing or have been dancing for a while. The classes are always very interesting and fun, time flies in a second) I’ve been dancing hip-​hop and dancehall before, and wasn’t very familiar with salsa before, especially dancing wearing heels!!! But Maria explained every tiny detail and it was impossible not to get what she was talking about! I could never though I would be able to dance on heels:) Thank you Maria for great classes. Besides opportunities to grow, the atmosphere in the class is very friendly, that is very important!!! Thank you!

Mari is an amazing and successful World champion dancer. She is also an incredibly talented and patient dance instructor. I have been taking Ladies Latin Styling classes with Mari for 3 months now and it has been a wonderful experience. The dance classes are well planned and choreographed, and she gradually builds on the various routines to enable you to improve. She makes certain that all her students are able to follow along with the routine.
The best part of going to Mari’s classes is her wonderful personality; she is always very welcoming, kind, positive and supportive.
I sincerely recommend Mari!

I met Mari last year. She is a professional dancer and teaches all kind of dances. She started teaching me some Salsa moves on spot before I even sign up for her class. From that point I fell in love with Salsa! She is an amazing instructor and so lovely to work with. She will teach you how to dance like no others. She knows how to keep you involved in it, and before you know it, you could master it in a short period of time!
She is highly recommended!

Mari Danse is the #1 place in LA to learn how to dance or improve your dancing. Maria is a highly talented instructor, dancer, choreographer, and performer. She will add sexiness to your dance moves, correct your posture, and give you personal feedback in order to enhance your moves.
I have had the pleasure of attending her classes and as well as watching her performances. She is absolutely outstanding. I would recommend anyone who wants to learn how to salsa or cha cha cha, etc. Join her classes and you will never regret!

I’ve seen Mari dancing at LA Salsa open 2013. It was such a beautiful and amazing show!!! Mari is a very talented and charismatic dancer with such a positive energy! She is one of those people who can inspire you to do what you really love! Can’t wait to see her performance again! Awesome!
