People love taking private lessons from Christina for several reasons, here a few:

Leaders:

Not only can she teach men how to properly lead, but she can also, from a follower's perspective, give the men invaluable helpful tips on what feels good to the follower.  With these tips her male students soon become a favorite with the ladies.

Followers: 

Not only can Christina teach the ladies how to follow but also she's an expert on spinning/turning, styling/arm positioning, footwork/shines &  body movement/isolations, just to name a few.

Her Classical Dance Background allows her to teach her female students the proper techniques which will make the ladies graceful, elegant, sexy , balanced & well rounded dancers.  

Christina has gained worldwide fame for her flawless following, her complementary styling and her incredible musicality.

She's one of the top followers on the Worldwide Salsa Circuit and men line up to social dance with her anytime she's present at an International Salsa Event.

Her Styling always compliments her partner not disrupting the lead but rather enhancing it with her arms, hands, body, legs and feet. 

Her Uncanny Musicality ability allows her to predict and interpret the music with her dancing as if she has memorized every song.  This is by far one of the hardest skills to achieve as a dancer.  To not only dance to the music but to dance in the music.  Her social dancing is so musical that people mistakenly think that she's performing choreography when she's in fact just spontaneously improvising while she's social dancing.
