Lori Marco
Instructor · Grand Rapids · dancing 26 yrs · teaching 24 yrs
I’ve been teaching for over 20 years and have experience teaching most styles of dance that are done with a partner. I formerly competed Pro-am at the Gold level in Latin, Rhythm, Standard and Smooth and continue to train with good pros in both the social dances and ballroom. I can teach beginners up to advanced dancers depending on the style of dance. I also know how to teach both a social dancer who needs to know lead/follow as well as someone who would like to compete or perform. I have experience with creating choreography as well.
