Hola! Originally from New York, 2x World Salsa Summit champion, my love for dance began at home among family. At the age of 11, I began training in jazz but quickly found my way back to Latin music and culture. I’ve been in the dance industry for over 28 years. My unique style, love and passion for the arts has been expressed through my creative choreography and distinct style of teaching. I strongly believe that these two attributes have touched many lives throughout South Florida.
A DancewithJulie class is not a typical class, it’s an experience that will have you wanting to learn more about Latin dance, the music and culture. If you are looking to elevate your dance journey, visit one of the locations listed below.
Love taking her classes! She creates a safe environment to explore your individuality as a dancer. She meets you wherever your skill level is and challenges you along the way. Best of all, is her ability to create understanding in what she teaches. Grateful to have found her.

Love, LOve, LOVE Julie’s style of teaching! She’s FUN and super quick to spot the adjustments you can make to take your dancing to the next level.
Her tips on weight transfer, musicality, rhythms, and body movement are pure gems. 💃🏾💎
Don’t be surprised if her classes unleash that Dancing Diva in YOU.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I attended my first class with Julie but, I knew I wanted to improve my dancing skills. Even though I had a great salsa on 2 instructor I always felt that something was missing. I had many musicality classes in the pass but With Julie everything seemed easier. Now, I am able to listen, understand the music and be creative. Julie has the knowledge of technique, form, and style to teach a person to become a great dancer. And, the most important aspect of taking her classes, is that she motivates you to continue to acquire the highest skills possible. I am very glad that I trusted my friend who recommended her. when I will be ready to go back social dancing, I know that I will be a confident and amazing social dancer! Thank you, Julie, for always delivering amazing instruction and bringing out the best of us. Your classes continue to be best part of my week. I am recommending you without hesitations.
