"It's really worth the drive from LaGrange for me to attend
the Kingston class because I really enjoy it. I know I will
leave the class really knowing the material versus some
other classes I have taken where the instructor teaches
something but then quickly goes onto the next lesson
without really teaching the detail of the material."

Here's what else our students said:

"You really work with us to improve, wherever we are in
skills. This allows us to become more confident dancers."

"Excellent teaching skills! Linda & Chester encourage
growth at every level."

"Your teaching is the best "fit" I've found -- the balance of
technique and dancing is excellent. You are both
thoughtful and attentive instructors. The old Arthur Murray
slogan of "put some fun in your life, try dancing" pretty
well sums it up."

"I always get something out of the classes and workshops,
whether it's general information or one of those wonderful
"aha" moments, I go home happy."

"Linda & Chester are the best teachers around and share
their love of swing."

"It's what I want and it's local! It doesn't get any better. I
feel very lucky."

"I get to learn something valuable and fun..also get to meet
new people."

"My family told me about Linda and Chester. I loved the
first class. They made you feel like nothing is impossible
and have a great sense of humor."

"I was taking classes here and there and enjoying them, but
wanted more. A friend told me about your classes and now
I'm hooked."

"I love having a way to dance, where it's not a club, it takes
place early, and no drinking. Little did I know that swing
dancing is so fun and challenging and how interesting it is
to learn how to follow and lead and what that really means.
Never understood it before."

"I enjoy dancing and the way the class was held. The
progression and practice and being able to attend as a
single are a plus for me.

"Lots of fun, You provide clear instructions and are patient
with questions and requests for repeated demonstrations. It
makes for a relaxed and friendly atmosphere."

"Loved the informality, easiness, patiences, and people!
Pleasant, fun learning experience."

"I first heard about the workshops. These were so positive I
decided to take lessons. Fun motivates me to return."

"It keeps me physically active, especially in the evenings
when it's easy to slip into couch potato mode. The classes
are fun, the people are great and I'm still learning. It's a
great de-stresser after the work day."

"There is always something to gain out of all of these
classes. The material is approached in many different ways:
visually, through concepts, with analogies, using props,
muscle memory, and even how you feel about the whole
social aspect of dancing. The classes and Linda's newsletter
give you all you need to know to improve."

"Great fun...great instructors...encouraging & know the art
of breaking complex movement into small manageable
components"
