 Thumbtack Best Pro of 2015



Welcome to Topline Studio!

Congrats on taking the next step in learning how to dance! Dance is a great form of exercise, is a social activity, excellent for creating strength and balance in the body, stimulates the mind, and most of all is fun!

I have been teaching ballroom since 1993 and am Professionally certified as Highly Commended by the American International Dancers Association - formerly United States Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (USISTD) and Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance (ISTD). I formerly competed in 9 dance American Style and continue to do performances. My specialty is introducing beginning students to ballroom dance and am available for private and group lessons. I regularly teach American and International styles as well as train new teacher candidates for USISTD and ISTD exams. I also continue to take lessons and coaching on a weekly basis and have always believed one should never stop learning. So I have made it a point to continue my learning and stay on top of the current trends and techniques.

Most of my teaching is done through East Towne Ballrooms, Topline Studio, Wauwatosa Lions Club, Wisconsin Athletic Club and area community centers and groups but I am also available for private and group lessons that you may want to set up for your own event. Please feel free to contact me for more details!

Dance is a very powerful drug Mr. Keane.
If embraced judiciously, it can exorcise demons, access deep seated emotions
and color your life in joyous shades of brilliant magenta that you never knew existed.
But, one must shoulder its challenges with intrepid countenance
if one is ever to reap its rewards.
