Testimonials
So much more than dance lessons, a dance family, where the fun and community continue beyond the classroom. If you want to laugh, move and make great friends, do yourself a favour and come along. Jo’s enthusiasm and energy is infectious. Just do it!
— Jeanitta, October 2021
Jo is amazing! Her experience and knowledge of Latin/Cuban dance is extensive, she makes the class fun and it doesn’t matter what level of dance experience you have you are guaranteed to gain confidence and learn so much! I love these classes and recommend My Little Havana to everyone!! Everyone needs salsa in their lives it’s good for the soul!!!
— Christina, July 2021
“Guys...no matter what you think, trust me, you can dance! After a very bad experience with a different dancing academy (bachata, not salsa though), I thought I am an "natural anti-talent" :) However, thanks to Jo and her My Little Havana academy, I now not only know I can dance but I actually really enjoy it! It is obvious that Jo loves what she does and she is able to transfer her enthusiasm to students!”
— Adam Pomothy, 2020
I joined my Little Havana two years ago. There is no week without dancing at this amazing academy except if i have work commitments (trips). I love Cuban salsa style, specially Rueda de Casino because there are so many combos and different dancing partners in the same song!! Recently i have found Song and Afro-cuban styles very entertaining. My Little Havana is one of the very few places where to learn them!!!
I found in dancing at My Little Havana an excellent way to balance life: I have got new friends, my soul feels happy when dancing and i enjoy learning nee dancing styles because I can understand better how our bodies move. Jo Anne is an amazing instructor, friend and human being!! She is very passionate with what she does!!!
Highly recommended academy (10/10)
