“I have learned ballroom dances for three years in the ballroom class in Mass., USA.  I just stopped because of teachers’ retirement.  I have been searching from youtube and try to continue learning by myself.  I find your records of ballroom are the best among all the youtube records I have seen.”   Roseanne Qiu, Andover MA, USA    26/12/2011

“You are a great teacher and your videos are very helpful. I really appreciate making your teaching  skill so accessible for us.”   Farzaneh Akhbari, Mesa, AZ, USA    22/12/2011

“I where very impressed recently by your instructional clips I dicovered on U-tube. I decided to buy your Standard & Latin Bronze II collections.  I just wanted to let you know that my wife and I are extremely pleased and  impressed with the quality of your instruction.   Super clear even for non english (french) speaking people,  and we just wanted to congratulate you on having put together such quality ballroom dance dvds.”        Ronald Baeyens, Belgium  20/12/2011

“We live in New Brunswick and have been ballroom dancing for several years.  Our instructors can only come to our area twice a month so many dancers in our club use your video clips to help us with the bronze and silver figures we are learning.  We find your clips most helpful and are very thankful for them!”                                                                                                                                                                                    Janet and Claudio Krickler, New Brunswick  11/12/2011

“For months now me and my dancing partner have enjoyed your dance performances very much – but “enjoy” is not the right word. In fact, when we started to refresh our dancing skills (just to find out that we can’t get enough of dance figures and learning the right dance technique), I accidentally bumped into your videos on youtube and since then we have become true believers of your work. Regularly we integrate some of your steps that are not taught in our dance classes into our dance figures repertoire, like the Shadow Stalking Walks. I hope you won’t mind that we began to call those figures the “master” moves, and they look truly spectacular on the dance floor.  You inspired us to become better, more precise when dancing, while not forgetting all the fun this sport can make. Be it one of the 300 balls in Vienna, or any other ballroom dancing event. For us, there is nothing comparable on this planet, and we appreciate that we can follow idols like the both of you are to us.  Its a shame that your ballroom is far away from Austria, as this would have become our own private church.  Season’s greetings from Vienna and all the best to both of you.”        Oliver & Maria, Vieena, Austria  10/12/2011

“I like your website and the program easy to follow. Very organized from the Bronze to Gold. Better than other school and studio from my experience. Thanks for sharing many years of your hard work. I will spread the word and your website in Atlanta, Georgia.”        Albert Lugassy, Atlanta, USA   28/11/2011

“We have enjoyed the instruction tapes and have found them to be the best method for us to learn. Your analysis of the technique has been a great help in improving our enjoyment of dancing.”                                                                                                                                    Neil Vader, Ontario, Canada  6/10/2011

“With great pleasure we watch your DVD’s several times- from the overview to the details.  The mixture of demonstrating and explaining is perfect.  We are not native speakers, but there is no problem understanding you.”                                                                                        Paul Schneider, Germany  02/10/2011

“I have tried many different DVD’s and none have been effective like yours.  If you ask me what makes your DVD’s special I would say: 1. The slow pace which makes it seem unhurried and effortless. Other dance DVD’s tend to assume you know already and go right into practice. 2. The repeated demonstrations of steps from different angles – this is just what a student needs when they are learning by themselves and have a hard time picking up a step. When we first see a step it may not make sense but seeing from another angle it does – we see the foot placement, etc. 3. The fact that the DVD menu allows you to view any step – this is extremely useful and possibly the best feature. 4. The cost is affordable, even for people who live in other countries (as I do) So, my sincere thanks to you and everyone there.”                                                                                                                                                                  Namal De Silva, Sri Lanka  8/7/2011

“I would like to tell you that you are great teacher! The method you introduced to correct turns in Viennese waltz with extra side steps is super. I have been learning different dances for 6 years and nobody can tell me how to correct line of dance in Viennese waltz. We always stopped and started again. Thank you!!!”                                                                                                                                                                                                           Andrzej Obloj, Poland   11/4/2011

“I have purchased a number of your online instructional videos, and I have to say they are excellent!  When I was living in the UK, I passed the Silver exams from the UKTDA in  Ballroom and Latin and was halfway through the gold syllabus when through work commitments I moved back home to Ireland.  Unfortunately, Ballroom and Latin dance is very much in its infancy in Ireland, so there was nowhere to continue to progress.  However since finding your work, I have begun again and I have to say they are excellent!!”                                                                                              Gerard O’Keeffe, Ireland    31/3/2011

“Just to say thank you, not only do you market an exceptional product, your customer service is excellent as well. I shall not hesitate to refer your site to my friends in the dancing circles.”  Gerry Nayton, UK

“I haven’t reviewed all the videos yet, but after looking briefly at the routines and the waltz, I can see we made the right purchase. Your frames, techniques and descriptions are better than any of the videos we’ve seen in the past or that would could find on the Internet. Please accept our congratulations to both you and Wendy,”  Joseph & Mary Streff, Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA

“Andy – your you tube videos totally sold me — yours are the best international ballroom instruction clips I have seen, and I’ve seen a lot — you have a style for teaching that succeeds in balancing looking professional without the “exaggeration” of style you see in professional competitions, which makes it difficult to relate to as a “social dancer”. Your teaching tips are done just right — you add a couple of tips re style and steps at different times so that learning is not an overload initially, yet they cover all the aspects anyone would need to know re dance to dance like a pro. You and wendy make dance learning approachable for us new dancers. thanks.” Owen Sheaks, Reston, VA, USA

“I just received the Bronze II Slow Foxtrot DVD and it was great! Your method of teaching is top notch, I couldn’t ask for more. Thank you!” Bob Gillespie, Surrey

“I just finished watching all of your DVDs and I think they’re great. I’ve been able to maximize my dance lessons by having prior knowledge of the steps and whenever I’m having difficulties they’re a perfect reference.” Jessica Van Dusen

“My fiancé Mateja and I are truly excited and eager to receive your DVD. We are getting married in July 2009 and want to have a memorable first dance together. Mateja did extensive research online in trying to find the proper instructional video to help us get on our way. She found examples on YouTube that were particularly helpful. It seems that the details you provide in breaking down each particular step will help immensely. We are looking forward to receiving your DVD!!!” Rob Povirk, Atlanta, Georgia

By the way: I love your explanations in English, though I speak German, I will understand every single word because you speak so clear…if you would have a Dancing school here in Austria I will definitly visit your courses… so I hope, I will learn it by your DVDs… Best greetings from Vienna, Austria! Friedrich Patek

“My husband and I were very impressed by your instructional clip on u-tube. It is clear and broken down into steps that are easy to follow. The information conveyed is pertinent, complimented by your physical demonstration of the steps. We have both taught in the past and you are an excellent teacher, as I am sure your staff at the Grand Ballroom must be.” Katlaan Huntir, Vernon, BC

“Hi Mr and Mrs Wong greetings to you from my beautiful island Barbados in the West Indies.I was browsing the net for ballroom dancing videos or cds and ran into your website,I was totally surprised to see the quality of teaching from your videos which is fantactic,mind you I’m doing bronze now having graduated from beginners,have been ballroom dancing just about 6 months and loving it that’s why I want to get some cds on most of the rythmns that I practice with your unique teaching…” Malie Pinkett, Barbados

“I purchased a set of your gold standard ballroom dvd about a year ago. We found the instruction very well done. It is clear ,concise, and very helpful. We benefit a lot from the lessons. Thank you.” Dennis Toy, Winnipeg

“Thank you very much for your generousity, your dance videos is a goldmine for social dancers. My wife and I hope to have a beginner group in standard and latin in our very little town, though our main interest is The argentine tango we do dance standard and latin in a very basic level best greetings from Denmark” Ilf and Karen, Denmark

My wife and I purchased a number of your instructional DVD’s a couple of months ago. I just wanted to let you know that we are extremely pleased and most impressed with the quality of your instruction. The details for each step are crystal clear and being able to see what you are ultimately working towards in terms of a routine for each dance is just what is needed (you can see the destination as well as each step of the route to get there – great!!). I had done a lot of research before buying your product (and had been disappointed with other products), and I just wanted to congratulate you on having put together such superior material. Rob Bickerdike, Vero Beach, Florida

“The teaching method is easy to follow and reinforces our practical instruction. We especially appreciate being shown what NOT to do. Thank you for a very comprehensive lesson.” Brian & Rona Holmes, Australia

“We have purchased all your videos and I must say that you are the most amazing teacher. You explain and break down things in such a simple format even a novice can quickly learn. Congratulations and thanks so much.” Dr. Delbe Robichaud, New Brunswick

“I also wish to thank you both for the excellent demonstration videos that you have placed on the YouTube website. I consider myself very lucky to have found them and, consequently, your own internet shop.” Alan Reece, Berlin, Germany

“I am writing to you to congratulate you and your husband for the fantastic videos of dancing lessons that you have both produced.  I have seen some parts on YouTube and they are the best tool that a beginner can buy in order to do the “homework”, i.e. to review at home all the dancing steps that one has not totally understood during the last dancing lesson at school.  It will be a pleasure for us to have you both as our virtual teachers.”                       Domingos Guimaraes, Portugo

“Our daughter gave us your Silver Cha Cha for Xmas-I mean we’ve been doing it for 2 years.  Now we realize we may benefit from your Bronze.  We have ordered both and looking forward to correcting all our bad habits.  We love the way you present your moves and are looking forward to the new DVDs.”                       Margaret & Lloyd Barnes, Newfoundland

“We’ve been using some of your DVDs to suppliment our dance lessons and have just bought another set. Just wanted to drop you a note saying how much we enjoy these and thank you. Your teaching style is wonderful and you make the steps clear and easy to pick up. My wife and I enjoy dancing (I wish I had started years ago) and we’ve found a few places to dance out locally.  If you’re ever in Sykesville, stop by.”                       Dave and Rose Cox, Sykesville, MD

“I just thought that I would let you know, we really enjoy your style of instruction (clear, concise and well demonstrated). Several members of our dance group are planning on buying your DVD’s, because of the improvement that they have seen in our dancing ability, which we attribute to your and Wendy’s excellent instruction. Wish we lived closer so we could take your lessons personally, but this will have to do for now.”                  Dave Grant, Rossland, B.C.
“Thank you so much Andy.  The discs arrived today and we have already watched the Technique one and are very impressed with your clear guidance.  We don’t think there will be much television watched in our house over the next few weeks as we are looking forward to spending our time with your DVD’s.  Maybe we will be back for the Latin ones!”    Ian & Kathy Hocking, Oldham, UK
