As a guy that’s something I never had any luck with previously. This has been a huge help in my Blues Dancing and dancing in general.  Anat’s classes are pretty much the best aerobic exercise one can get.

As someone who did not believe it was possible to learn how to Samba after retirement, I have been corrected. Anat is not just a superb dancer, she is one who has the gift of showing others how to enjoy not only watching the Samba but actually doing it!
