"I wanted to thank you again for teaching the tango lesson at Diva's.  
You were fabulous and we have gotten nothing but positive feedback.  
I appreciate the way in which you made the crowd feel comfortable.  
I hope to see the both of you (Brandon and Jackie) at future Culture Shock events."
Rani Varghese, University of Massachusetts-Amherst

"Jackie was an instant hit in St. Louis.  In addition to being a great DJ and exquisite dancer,
Jackie is a wonderful tango teacher.  She has an inate ability to reach out and communicate with fellow dancers,
putting them at complete ease, and provide meaningful instruction to dancers of all levels.  
She is as comfortable as a leader as she is a follower,
giving an added dimension as an instructor.  And at the milongas, her lovely daughter
Molly was among the most sought after followers of the evening!  
She was certainly my favorite!"  Rick Barbarash, St. Louis August 2005

Connected in New Haven: Jackie, I write this the day after a wonderful (and
first Saturday Milonga in New Haven. My Fiancée Sue and I noted a
big improvement in our dancing. We attribute this to instruction we received
in both private and group classes with you. Our connection was better than
it has been in a very long time. Sue commented I even managed to put her
into the "Tango Zone" a couple of times!!! Thanks so much and see you at our
next lesson.  Angelo

"Within a few hours of teaching a workshop in Beijing,
Jackie quickly became a role model to the local women.
Her teaching skills and assertiveness in both follower and leader role amazed Chinese women.
Her subtle yet methodical teaching style eased non-dancers into tango
so smoothly they almost did not realize they were "learning"....
If Jackie was not commited to her life and family in Massachusets
she'd easily become a tango star and talk show personality in Beijing ! "
