    WP. I generally compose on Word and then insert via the admin page for my website. I’m just a dummy dance teacher…

  • Testimonial

    As a professional in the ballroom dance industry and a studio owner, my staff and I have relied upon Beth to give us a solid foundation in the ballroom dances. As she is a United States Champion, we know that we are getting the correct information from her and we also see many of her students performing the skills of ballroom dancing very well. Beth is fun during lessons but appropriately demanding, and has so much experience with teaching that she is ready for anything and can handle students of any level. We are happy to recommend her to students and professionals alike.

  • Testimonial

    Beth Knoll is an amazing ballroom instructor, easily the best in the Portland area! Not only do you, as a student or couple, have her undivided attention to learn ballroom dancing, but she gives you the insight to understand the all important "why" you need in order to (eventually after practice) do the patterns with grace and competence. ~Nick F.

  • Testimonial

    Beth travels the country to judge major ballroom dance competitions so she has a good eye and can quickly spot when you are doing something wrong. And, because of her experience, she knows what you can do to correct the problem and is able to communicate that clearly to her students. If you take her group classes, you will get an idea of how clearly she communicates these sometimes difficult dance concepts. Of course, she is even more able to go into details during her private lessons. In summary, Beth is a fabulous instructor who can effortlessly communicate her dance talents to her students. Her students benefit from excellence in competition, or become better social dancers. ~Nick F.
