Mary Ann Carter has taught for CSDA Portland since 2006.  She trained in England and the United States with International Style Champions.  She competed internationally with her partner and together they opened the Classique Ballroom in Chicago.  Mary Ann moved back to Oregon several years ago to be near her family.  She is a well known instructor in the Portland Dance Community.

Dave and Jody Crandell have been dancing and teaching dance for 20 years. They have instructed over 8500 successful students.  They are former World Class Competition Dancers and have competed in the World Championships in the Diamond Advanced Division and Division 1.  They are former CWDI officers and and are certified judges.  They teach, judge and perform at dance events through out the USA and Canada.  They are available for private instruction, bride and groom choreography, weddings, and other social events. They began teaching for CSDA Portland in 2008.  We are pleased to have them on board!

Joyce Mattson is a popular aerobics and line dance instructor in the Portland area.   Her high energy lessons are not to be missed!  At 70 years of age she still teaches at least 12 group lessons every week.  Because of her demand we haven't been able to schedule her to teach for us often. We hope to have her back early in 2009.
