About Olivia

Hi! I’m Olivia, the owner of Olivia Rose Dance Studio. I’m an Annapolis-based ballroom dance instructor who loves both dance and teaching. I have been ballroom dancing for over a decade and teaching full time for five years now. I loved social dancing the moment I tried it, and it is a great joy for me to help others grow in their confidence and enjoyment on the dance floor.

I specialize in social dance and wedding dance instruction, offering clear, supportive lessons that focus on real-world skills and genuine connection so you can enjoy dancing wherever it takes you.

My story
A young woman with short dark hair and glasses, smiling, standing against a brick wall. She has tattoos on her arms and shoulders, is wearing a red patterned sleeveless top, a black skirt with a slit, a wide red belt, and beige shoes.

Student Reviews

  • Olivia was exactly the kind of instructor we hoped for as complete beginners. Throughout the duration of our sessions, she was patient, encouraging, and always mindful of our comfort level.

    — John & Nina

  • Born with 3 left feet and ZERO rhythm, I had always thought that you were born a dancer OR an observer. That all changed with Olivia's tremendous patience and skillful instruction. She persevered and kept smiling through my many missteps.

    - George

  • We highly recommend Olivia to anyone seeking dance lessons, whether that be for a special occasion or as an opportunity to learn something new!

    — Hanna & Dalton

  • [Olivia] was always warm, professional, offered wonderful feedback, and brought joy to even our mistakes. We always really looked forward to our weekly dance practice and plan on returning to Olivia for more dancing lessons!

    —Emily & Tony

  • We were lucky to have lessons from Olivia and she made the whole process approachable and fun! She brings a wealth of experience to each lesson along with a generous helping of warmth and humor.

    — Emmy & Andrew

  • We are deeply grateful to Olivia for her patience, guidance, and encouragement, whose teaching continues to shape our confidence, technique, and love of dance—both at home and around the world.

    -Jennifer and Emile

  • It has become our favorite night of the week that we use as a date night basically. Olivia is so kind, patient, and fun to work with and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. HIGHLY recommended to anyone and everyone looking to learn to dance and have a good time!

    — Alex & Gretchen

  • Olivia is a terrific teacher! She’s patient and has a sense of humor that helps me get through embarrassing moments when I’m trying to figure out how to do new moves. I thought I was no good at dancing, and she helped me build up fundamentals that have made it fun again.
