Rachelle

 |
"Rachelle has recently returned from the UK after spending 10 years there. Whilst there she took her first salsa class and quickly fell in love with it - so much so that she eventually set up her own salsa company on the south coast. Rachelle is popular throughout the south coast of England as a teacher because of her down to earth and fun teaching methods combining technique with fun and enthusiasm.
Rachelle's teaching focuses on leading and following techniques, as well as ladies’ styling. Her absolute aim is to pass on and share her passion for dancing and for the salsa community. Her number one rule is to enjoy yourself on the dancefloor! |

Latin Dance Teaching Experience:
Rachelle started teaching in 2004 in the UK and was quickly employed by salsa clubs throughout the south east. She has also been invited to teach at both national (UK) congresses and day events. Rachelle learnt her teaching methods from multi award winning teacher and performer Lee Wright. In New Zealand with her ladies team "Salsa Revolution" she has had many successes with winning compeitions & being selected to perform in Sydney. |
