Private Dance Lessons in Seattle
Have it totally your way -- that's the advantage of private lessons. Your schedule, your amount of time, your choice of music, dances, focus and details -- from a single "basic survival" lesson to deep inquiry and exploration into a favorite dance.
You can begin to dance, brush up your dancing, prepare for an event -- or get the special attention you want to work through...
Have it totally your way -- that's the advantage of private lessons. Your schedule, your amount of time, your choice of music, dances, focus and details -- from a single "basic survival" lesson to deep inquiry and exploration into a favorite dance.
You can begin to dance, brush up your dancing, prepare for an event -- or get the special attention you want to work through a "sticking point" and become a better dancer.
Linda has been dancing all her life and she's a certificated teacher and teaching artist. She's adept at discerning your learning style and will teach you in the way that *you* learn best.
She's high-spirited and light-hearted, she approaches dance that way and can help you do the same. Kids and grown ups from 9 to 99 have had a great time learning to dance with her and you can, too. Just bring your expectation to have fun learning easily and well, and a pair of smooth soled shoes (or your socks).
* If you're a beginning dancer, you'll receive as much basic information as you need to feel comfortable on the dance floor -- from what to expect when you walk in the door of a class or dance to what shoes are work best, from how to deal with the music to how to deal with a partner -- as well as the rhythm, the steps and how to dance smoothly.
* If you're a "us-ta" dancer (one who "used to" dance) and want to brush up or start over, you'll begin with what you remember (no matter how much or how little) and move on from there. Linda will help you reconstruct what you used to do to the music you know and used to dance to, or strike out in new directions -- your choice.
*If you are preparing for an event like a special trip or party, or a wedding, you'll focus together on your priorities -- from learning a few simple, elegant moves for the bride and groom's first dance, to practicing several dances for a whole evening of dancing.
*If you are working on a particular "sticking point", Linda will help you figure out what's not working and why, make the necessary adjustments so everything goes smoothly and comfortably, and then practice your new way of dancing to embed it in muscle memory so it feels natural and right for you.

Review of Private Dance Lessons in Seattle, October 12, 2008
I am fortunate to have Linda as my private dance instructor. Her teaching style taught me how to dance very quickly. She motivated me with clear instructions, graceful movements, fun steps, and humor. I recommend Linda to anyone who wants to learn how to dance skillfully and gracefully.

Review of Dance Eclectic, January 15, 2009
I have taken dance classes for many years and Linda Townsend is one of the best teachers I have had the opportunity to work with. She is a highly experienced and accomplished dancer who is exceptionally skilled at instruction for all levels and types of dance.
Linda has a unique understanding of the importance of understanding and mastering fundamental skills, which are so important to learning how to become a confident dancer who is comfortable with other others on the dance floor. In my experience, these basics are typically skipped or skimmed over, even though they are so crucial in learning how to experience the exhilaration of partner dancing. Key elements include understanding rhythm, the importance of balance and weight changes, and knowledge of how our bodies need to move and adapt themselves to various dance styles and movements.
Whether you are new to dance or consider yourself an experienced dancer, LInda approaches dance with a zest that is inspiring and makes classes a fun.
