A Chat with Regina Rose, 757 Dance

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?

Our studio supports many independent instructors in the Hampton Roads area covering several styles of dance and fitness.  We work with students for Wedding Dancing, Hip Hop, East Coast Swing, West Coast Swing, Salsa, Ballroom & Line Dancing.  We work with instructors available to teach on the Peninsula as well as the Southside and will connect you with the right person for your dancing goals.

What dance are you most passionate about?

My passion is working with wedding couples and those that think they can't dance, learn that they can.  It takes a lot of patience to go through the basics and it's exciting watching students become dancers.  I enjoy a variety of music as well as styles. You could find me on a weeknight dancing with the Salsa Community or running off to a Westies Event and on the weekends you might find me at a Milonga or Ballroom Social.

What's one tip for first-time students that will make them feel like veterans?
Wear shoes you can comfortably turn in, and don't be afraid to take a lesson or group class.  Every person that formally dances, was once a beginner and our dance communities love having new dancers join in.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
Dancing is great for the body, mind, and spirit! When you Dance, you are In The Moment & the world vanishes and becomes your playground.  Live, love, and dance.

What do you love most about your job?
The many blessings and great people that surround me.
