Lorraine teaches Salsa, West Coast Swing, Nightclub Ballad Dance and Romantic 2-Step and ballroom dances, including Waltz, Foxtrot, Rumba, Cha Cha, East Coast Swing, and Tango. She started social dancing at the age of 5 when her aunts taught her how to Swing and Be-Bop. While growing up, Lorraine kept up with the current dances and entered and won 15 dance contests, including contests on all of the teen dance programs of the era. While a ballroom dance student, Lorraine competed in 3 Pro-Am events and brought home a total of four 1st Place, eight 2nd Place and seven 3rd Place awards. Her Pro-Am competition experience gives her an appreciation for fundamentals and good technique but she loves any kind of dancing and shares that joy in her teaching.Lorraine is available to teach private lessons, groups, wedding couples, and for parties. Her specialty is teaching fundamentals and basics to beginners, making the experience fun, and adapting the lesson to fit the needs and skill level of the student(s). She is affiliated with the Palomar Ballroom, having been a staff teacher for 2 years and is currently an independent contractor, teaching group classes and private lessons at the ballroom.
Read some of the comments Lorraine has gotten from her beginning series classes: "You are very clear and can articulate problem areas;" "I enjoyed my time and look forward to learning more;" "I've taken all her series classes because she's so good;" "Excellent pace - did not 'get ahead' of class;" "Provided individual attention when appropriate, was very patient and understanding;" "Broke everything down, more than adequate explanations and demos;" "Answered questions beautifully, made everyone feel good."
