Brought together by their love of connection on the dance floor, Mike and Reuel are known as one of the most engaging teaching couples in the country.  They provide clear explanations, and balance in-depth technical information with levity and humor, creating a classroom that is both productive and fun.  They first taught together at Lindy Focus 2007, and have since become a force to be reckoned with, taking first place in the BluesShout Strictly Ballroomin Competition, and teaching at events from Down Home Blues to Blues Muse, and many places between. 


A typical class with Mike and Reuel might focus on a musical inspiration, and the movement  techniques that come out of it.

Mike and Davis bring together the best of two worlds.  Both full-time dance instructors, Davis combines a technical precision and practiced clarity with raw athleticism, while Mike brings the relaxed patience of an expert follow and an in-depth passion for the music.  They've taught at events in both the US and Canada, and each have an extensive list of competition wins in several dance forms.

Dave and Mike first danced together in 2005, and in 2007, they joined forces to teach at the first Enter the Blues.  Since then, they've taught together from coast to coast, becoming famous for their clever class concepts, great chemistry, and ability to teach both broad and specific material to dancers of all levels.

Dan Rosenthal and Mike Legett first danced together in 2009, and have been dancing and teaching together at events all over the country.  One of their regular, and favorite, gigs is teaching at the Augusta Heritage Festival in Elkins, WV every summer, working to bridge the gap between musicians and dancers.  Dan is an up-and-coming dance star with several first-place wins under his belt, as well as a degree in classical music performance, while Mike brings an extensive social dance expertise, and a few championships of her own, creating a knowledgeable, musical pairing.
