About the Instructor

Michael Larsen was born and raised in Santa Rosa, CA and began ballroom dancing as a 7th grader through the Nordquist Dance Studio. After two years of taking American Style social ballroom dance classes, he tried out and became a member of the Nordquist Junior Dance Club. Through this group, he was able to help teach ballroom dance to middle school students for four years. While in this group, Michael traveled to Hawaii to attend Buddy Schwimmer’s dance camp. He was able to learn a great deal from Buddy Schwimmer, Stephen Nordquist, and other accomplished dance instructors during this camp.

 

Michael is currently a middle school teacher and teaches ballroom dance to 300 students per school year. These students perform at school and local events.  They were featured on live television on segments of Good Day Sacramento in April 2015 and March 2016 and on Fox 40 News in June 2016. They have even flash mobbed local businesses and performed at halftime for the Sacramento Kings!
