"Kelly was my very first Salsa teacher almost a year ago. I started taking classes and lessons with him and have taken a few workshops and attended a good number of socials at his house. It is safe to say that without Kelly I probably would not be dancing today or at least at the level I currently am. I highly recommend working with him to learn the history, practice, and musicality of Cuban Salsa dancing. In my time of knowing him he has been a really kind friend and mentor and I appreciate all of his attention to my education."

"One of the most striking things about Kelly as a teacher, dancer and musician is his vast understanding and incorporation of musicality and the culture of dance in his classes. While his knowledge of various Latin dance styles is deeply rooted in precision and years of practice, it is his pure joy for dance and music that guides his students toward feeling inspiration and accomplishment in their own movement. His teaching style is unique, authentic and fun. All levels of dancers, whether following, leading, or both, will love these classes."

"I've been a student of Kelly's for almost 10 years. He's knowledgeable, experienced and fun! Each class and dance with Kelly is a new exploration of the music and moves. Whether a beginner or advanced dancer, he'll help you develop and grow."

"Kelly is a fantastic dance instructor. My classes with him have really enhanced my dancing. In addition to being able to teach dance technique at a high level, Kelly is incredibly knowledgeable; about different salsa styles as well as other Latin dance styles, including how they have evolved over time, how they interplay and weave together, and how all of these influences might play out on the dance floor. Kelly is an accomplished musician and lifelong student of Latin music as well. His teaching approach, with a focus on musicality, really helps his students to understand the music and how to let the music inform their dancing. Last but not least, Kelly is a very patient, kind, humorous, and above all, fun teacher. I would highly recommend Kelly’s classes to Salsa students of every level!"

"Kelly is one of the best dancers I've seen over the years. His classes are very fun and inspiring. His knowledge and focus on musicality really helps you dance in a way that truly appreciates and presents the music. From beginners to advanced dancers, everybody can get quite a lot from the class. Highly recommend!"
