Megan Stewart - Salsa, bachata instructor

Megan

Salsa, Bachata Instructor

While Megan has been dancing her whole life, training in classical ballet, tap, theatre dance, and hip-hop with additional experience in ballroom dance, jazz, and other styles, it wasn’t until she moved to DC in the summer of 2018 that she found salsa and bachata as her preferred forms of self-expression.

Megan previously choreographed and performed in several musicals at her high school and as a student tap performer in a professional production through the International Ballet Theatre outside Seattle, Washington. She was also part of two award-winning improvisational theater teams. At the College of William & Mary, she choreographed and performed with a student-run, all-style dance company. In addition to teaching, Megan performs with Salsa with Silvia’s semi-pro dance team, Amika Dance Company.

While Megan loves watching her students grow through dance, she hopes that what they take away is the same kind of confidence and community that dancing has helped her to find, regardless of their backgrounds.

I love this studio! I signed up for my first monthly unlimited class membership in December and have been taking salsa classes consistently since then. The format of 4 week classes, ranging from absolute beginner to intermediate levels, is brilliant.

My fiancé and I took salsa classes at this studio all summer long with Kelly. We had such a blast but had to stop when our graduate programs started up again. Needless to say we can't wait for summer to go again!

The teachers are experienced and patient, and there are different levels that you can choose from. You can either stay at your own level, or try others at the same time, its very flexible. They also teach Bachata and not Just Salsa, so you can enjoy both as I did. The stuff is really nice, and they also have a Social party once a month so you can practice your moves. Best studio I tried!

I took my first salsa lesson with Mario and it was excellent. It was obvious that he is a professional and very good at what he does. I'm an adult male and i was a bit scared because have never been inside a dance studio. He was able to teach me some dance steps and I look forward to having additional classes. The facility is new with a very nice design and professional operation.

My partner and I came here for our first private salsa lesson. I was a little anxious as I have no dance experience/rhythm and also wasn't sure how they'd handle two men learning two dance together. Our instructor, David, was absolutely awesome. He didn't miss a beat (..) and had such an easy way of interacting with us. He made even a nervous nelly such as myself feel calm and confident. The studio was also very nice and modern. We could not have had a better experience with Silvia's, and will be back for another lesson from David soon!

My fiance and I wanted to learn how to dance before our wedding, and we were fortunate to have Jason Potell as an instructor. Jason helped us develop choreography that matched a song we loved, and we had lots of fun working on it. The other great thing was that he helped us figure out our own style, and coached us in a way that enabled us to dance better as a couple, rather than trying to get us to follow a prescriptive routine. Thanks to Jason, we learned a lot, and we also had a blast doing our first dance as husband and wife.

I have now taken lessons at Salsa with Silvia for over 3 months and several classes. I have no hesitation in saying that Salsa with Silvia is one of the best Salsa schools in the Wash DC/MD area. The instructors at the studio are just amazing. I have taken classes with three of them, Kelly, Jennifer and Joffre, and I enjoy each of their classes.
