Qualifications

Many Spanish-speaking students enjoy being able to take dance lessons from an instructor whose first language is the same as theirs.  For students that are working on learning Spanish, its a great night to practice Spanish with a native and learn to dance at the same time.

Many local dancers have watched Rene and various partners, most recently Lori Hajarizadeh, perform at many dance venues in the Portland area.
