What my
Students Say

“It brought genuine happiness to my life.”
“I originally signed up for dance as a way to release stress. However the more I practiced the more I fell in love with dance. Dance was not only a stress relieving outlet, it helped build my inner confidence!! I often found myself smiling and not even realizing I was smiling. It brought genuine happiness to my life. It has allowed me to step out of my comfort zone and do things or moves I never imagined myself doing. Dance has allowed me to express my emotions, which has always been a challenge for me, wordlessly!!”

“He made us feel comfortable and made the process a fun event we could look forward.”
“My wife and I took dance classes with Antonio to prepare for our first dance at our wedding. From the very beginning he made us feel comfortable in a new environment and made the process a fun event we could look forward to together. We told him the song we had choose and he personally choreographed a first dance that flowed great with our song. At each lesson we made a game plan for what we would focus on that day and what we would be learning the following week. He helped us feel extremely prepared for our first dance at our wedding and we even learned a few other styles of dances along the way. Overall, Antonio was attentive, personable, and genuinely cared about his clients. I look forward to working with him for whatever dancing needs we may have in the future.”

“Dancing helps me reduce stress and keep my weight down.”
“I have always wanted to learn how to dance growing up, but this activity has been out of reach for us financially as well as not very popular or supported in our family. So, I only admired it on TV and was envious of people who dance on the floor at events.
One day my sister bought a gift card for the trial lessons and forced me to call and schedule lessons. I was shaking coming to my first dance lessons with many mixed emotions. I was scared of being judged, and excited to finally get out of my comfort zone at the same time.
Dance is fun, but not easy to do. I didn't expect it to be this challenging. However, it's quite addictive once you get the basics. It has brought more joy and confidence out in me, and it changed me so much that I don't feel shy going to parties or events anymore.
Dancing helps me reduce stress and it improves my physical wellbeing by keeping the weight down.
In all, thanks to my most wonderful and patient instructor who has made dance lessons fun and brought the best out of me.”

“That everyone needs to dance regardless of your age!”
“I started learning how to dance with Antonio for almost a year and I realized that it's a wonderful way to relax my mind after a hectic day of work. It's a lot of fun and a terrific way to exercise without your body knowing it. Antonio helped me realize that everyone needs to dance regardless of your age! He is a great instructor!”

“Such a great date night idea! “
“Antonio was an amazing teacher. My girlfriend and I have never done any type of dance outside of going out on a Saturday night. We were expecting to feel awkward and slightly embarrassed, but Antonio's teaching style had us fully comfortable through the lesson. His style of teaching will stick with you, and you'll have a great time learning to dance under his guidance!
Such a great date night idea! Antonio does a great job breaking down the dances into basic steps that are easy to follow. I'm by no means a dancer, but I felt like one during my lesson!”

“what a privilege it was to watch my daughter dance a Cortillian Waltz.“
“When I was a little girl and away from eye's view, I'd put on my leotard and dance around for hours... Of course, in my fairy tale world, I was flawless, as every little girl believes when she dances... So with the greatest of honor, what a privilege it was to watch my daughter dance a Cortillian Waltz choreographed specifically for her Quinceanera by, Antonio Frias. And, when I found the perfect song for our mother-daughter dance, I asked Antonio if he could give us a dance that had lots of twirls, as we like to do. His immediate response was a confident, I already have ideas
... my daughter's day was ever most magical... I now have been encouraged to continue my dancing (minus the leotard 
) And, this week's ballroom favorite, aside from Salsa, was the Venetian Waltz... it feels like opening up a ballerina music box, but I'm the twirling dancer that keeps spinning. Thank you so much, Antonio, and... I look forward to learning just about everything!”

“What an incredible experience.”
“What an incredible experience. My wife and I met with Antonio for a date night. Something unique and that we’ve never done before. Our first session was a blast. We learned 4 or 5 different dances. I think 2 words that come to mind about Antonio is Professional & Fun! We had a great time and can’t wait to go back for follow up sessions. I highly recommend working with Antonio!”

“What a blessing it has been to work with Antonio Frías as our choreographer for three theatrical productions.“
