I started dancing salsa with Hilary at the Garda Club and I'v
never looked back since!!! It's so difficult being a beginner, but, Hilary,
you make the classes so much fun!!! I was HOOKED after the first class!!!I couldn't
wait until Thursday every week...Hilary you have great people skills and you
have a natural flair for encouraging and inspiring people! Your hard work and
effort has paid off, because you have succeeded in building up a fantastic ,
successful and friendly salsa club with such an amazing atmosphere and vibe
that salseros and salseras find irrisistible..Thanks a million, Hilary, for
your inspiration, and for maing salsa so challenging, and yet so much fun!!!

Hilary is a wondeful teacher - makes all the dance more comprehensive
and easy but most of all - lots of fun! Try a class, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Beginners' Workshop October 09
I'm just dropping a note to say that I had a great time on Saturday
afternoon at the beginner's workshop. It was a great way to spend a Saturday
afternoon. The instructor was excellent [Maggie]. I was speaking to many of
the other attendees and they all were saying much the same. Toirleach
Garda Club, September 09
You are a hurricane of energy and class. I was a reluctant dancer
and it took a while for the awkwardness to disappear, yet when I see your smile
I know I can relax and enjoy it. People like you are rare, you make so many
people happy. I never in a million years believed when I was younger that I
would ever dance outside of a kickboxing ring. Fact is, it has enhanced my kickboxing
with its sense of timing and nimble footwork and the emphasis on leading on
the floor and in the ring. Unforunately Im travelling next year to practice
muai thai in Thailand. You're a legend and I will miss it for sure. Thanks"

"My friend Natalie has been talking about her salsa Thursdays
for months now and I felt too self-conscious and embarrassed to attend. However,
with encouragement I've been coming for one month and have loved every step
and mambo. It's been great for my self esteem and helps me get exercise. You
are a fantastic teacher and your patience with the class has kept me interested
and motivated. Long may it continue. Thank you."
