KOKO
IWASAKI

A NOTE FROM KOKO

  • My class focuses on the intention and technique of latin ballroom dancing. I will always try to teach the fundamental steps and end the class with a fun combination.

  • It requires focus, patience, lots of energy and an open heart and mind.

  • I suggest you bring ballroom heels/shoes and any outfit that makes you feel best! Spice & smiles are a plus.
