| 2026-04-12 | Ma***** | This app encompasses all the Latin Dances. The teacher, LiWen, breaks down each dance move in detail, into small, digestible short videos, and then builds them together into a smooth, beautiful dance. This method opens the eyes of the beginner start dancing with solid fundamentals, helps intermediate dancers improve their movements, and enhances advanced dancers with precise movements. I enjoy each segment of the dance videos, monthly challenges, and the daily follow-along practices. I feel physically stronger and more flexible since I started following the app almost a year ago. I highly recommend this app for all level dancers, including non-dancers who just want to learn graceful movement at home. | |

| 2025-11-15 | Bl***** | The Hips and Heels app is like an encyclopedia of latin /rythmn dance info and practice. Whenever I have a question about technique, I can easily look up the answer using the app, because of the comprehensive lessons that are well-organized by topic. It's also full of drills and practice choreography so it's help me develop a daily dance practice. Currently I am using the diary feature, which recommends daily lessons, to focus on turns and spins this month. | |

| 2025-06-19 | Al***** | **⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** I discovered LiWen through her Instagram videos and signed up because I was looking for a way to learn more effectively, efficiently and methodically on my own time. Her straight-to-the-point technique exercises with crystal-clear instructions were exactly what I needed. The online members-only workshops with live feedback and real-time Q&A are exceptional. LiWen’s teaching is helping me gain more confidence and believe in myself more in two major ways: First, she breaks down complex techniques into clear, manageable steps, giving me a systematic approach to learning. Second, her specific, actionable feedback shows me exactly how to fix issues and practice correctly on my own. Her teaching style is supportive, encouraging, patient, and remarkably clear. After experiencing her online instruction, I tried her live classes and absolutely love them - she knows exactly what each student needs to focus on. I started dancing less than 2 years ago and went through a lot of trial and error with different methods, sometimes losing hope. But with LiWen’s guidance, I can finally see genuine progress! I still have a lot to work on, but I’m slowly gaining confidence, which feels incredible after those early struggles. I wish I had found her earlier! If you want technical precision combined with genuine care for student progress, LiWen is the teacher you need. Highly recommend both online workshops and live classes. | |

| 2025-06-18 | me***** | LiWen’s classes are the best Latin dance genre online classes I’ve ever taken. And I’ve taken quite a few. She pays personal attention to each student and gives useful, constructive critiques so that each student knows their practice goals and specific exercises that will help them. She is also a delightful person, kind, a fantastic dancer, and she is in incredible shape! She inspires me to practice and know I can continue to learn and improve even though I’ve been dancing for many years. I highly recommend her app and programs for anyone from beginner to superstar who wants to be stronger, more flexible, and a more beautiful dancer. | |

| 2025-05-17 | Di***** | I find Hips and Heels to be a great resource. I use it several times a week to practice my technique, supplementing what I learn in the studio from my local teacher. New lessons are always added, and it’s so helpful to be able to go back to older ones for repetition and reinforcement. For me, repetition is key, and to have the lessons available 24/7 is so helpful. I’ve been dancing more than 10 years, but Hips and Heels would be appropriate for any level of dancing experience. The lessons build up from the basics, adding more advanced moves and style along the way. Live workshops are also available, where dancers can get instant feedback from LiWen. That’s also very helpful. Highly recommended! | |

| 2025-01-21 | Sa***** | I started working with Li-Wen through Hips + Heels three months ago and it has transformed more than my Latin dancing. I’m learning how to train and set longer term goals to eventually compete, and with that comes self-trust and confidence. Li-Wen is an amazing teacher. She has worked with so many dancers, she knows the common questions and learning curves and has recorded hundreds of videos and workshops addressing those challenges. She breaks things down and makes the learning manageable. Because there is a LOT to learn! I love the 21- and 28- day challenges because it makes it easy to incorporate them and track changes and growth over time. | |
