We've helped 1000+ dancers transform - and you're next!

The competition went really well for us! On the first day, we competed against 28 couples and placed 1st. The second day was a larger group with 73 couples, and we came in 2nd! (this is her second competition ever)

Hips + Heels helped and continue to help me getting my dancing better. All programs are super good structured and are designed to develop nice dancing skills and habits. LiWen gives useful tips and makes you exercise and repeat along the videos a lot. I feel more stable when I walk, my arms and other parts of the body feel more sorted and my turns are constantly getting better!

Hips + Heels has transformed more than my Latin dancing. The biggest thing I’ve noticed is the strength in my feet and calves which gives me a more solid connection to the floor. I feel proud and energized by the improvement and it was so gratifying to see my pro-am teacher get so excited. I’m also 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 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.

My Latin teacher is really impressed with the progress I’m making.

I have learned so much from this program. My goal is to improve my technique in Latin dances, and I have noticed significant improvement so far. I've noticed issues with my balance, and after participating in the Balance Challenge, I've already felt improvements. I practice my swivels and KAPS (walk technique from Rumba series) whenever I get the chance. I feel more stable, more flexible, stronger, and more confident than ever. 
The classes are perfectly organized. LiWen is an incredible coach, always there for us, and explains everything clearly. I am very grateful to learn from her and for her invaluable guidance. I strongly recommend :)

I feel more stable, more flexible, stronger, and more confident than ever. 

I love this app. Her challenges (series of short videos to use on a specific skill, like balance or body rolls), are wonderful. Each video is short - approximately 5 minutes - so that I can use them each day when practicing by myself. LiWen offers live Zoom sessions in which she gives personalized feedback, always with a big smile and a lovely combination of encouragement and specific suggestions for improvement. Plus, the app interface is great and allows me to schedule videos on a calendar. Five stars!

The Challenges are wonderful.
I use them each day

I found this app while I was searching online trying to find the proper techniques for the American rhythm dance. I absolutely love this app and now I am hooked! The program breaks down all of the techniques and steps into small sections so a beginner dancer like me would be able to follow easily and do not feel overwhelmed by it. I also love how LiWen will put together a routine at the end of each section so that I can follow along and practice what I’ve learned. Her program is different than others because she actually gives her personal touch to the students. In my opinion, this is the best Latin or American rhythm dance online program and I am so glad I signed up!

The best Latin or American Rhythm dance online program. I am so glad I signed up!

I have definitely noticed that I am less stiff when I am dancing. I have also done the flexibility course for the last 5 weeks and I am amazed how far I can go into the splits now. 
I love how Hips + Heels not only has the steps to latin dances, but also has separate courses to necessary techniques that can transcend to all my dances. Such as body flow, arm styling and flexibility. Courses provide short easy exercises that provide a great start to my every morning!

I am amazed how far I can go into the splits now.

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!

My dancing has steadily improved. 

I absolutely love this app! LiWen is an exceptional teacher who makes learning both enjoyable and effective. Her instructions are clear and easy to follow, and I was amazed at how quickly I could master steps and movements I once thought were too complicated, like hip action, styling, turns, and body rolls. You also get very personalized attention and tutoring, which makes the experience even more rewarding. If you’re looking to dramatically improve your Latin dancing skills while having a great time, this app is a must-have. Highly recommended!

I'm LiWen!

I'm so excited to help you transform your dancing! Like many of you, I didn't start latin dancing until I was a grown-up. So, all the things that you might be struggling with, such as wobbly ankles, struggling in your high heels, feel off-balanced in your spins, overwhelmed and feeling like it’s impossible to dance with good technique to music, feeling discouraged or disadvantaged that you started too late… 
I was there, and I totally understand! 

The problem is NOT YOU, but the way most latin dancing is being taught - overwhelming yet ambiguous. And in my years working as a licensed architect (the kind who designs buildings), I also know the time constraints that you may be facing and the frustration of not having space to do it all! 

That’s why I created Hips + Heels, a method to help you become the dancer that you dream of. This program is uniquely structured to help you build essential skills to be an all-rounded latin dancer. Each lesson is thoughtfully designed to layer on techniques step by step in detailed, yet do-able ways that make you motivated to practice! 

Get ready to transform your mind, confidence and dance skills to become the dancer you are proud of.

Do I need a partner?
Is this for only Followers?

You don't need a partner. 
The program is for both leaders and followers because the latin techniques are the same. 

There are however specific trainings especially catered for followers because of training in heels. But leaders also wear cuban heeled shoes, so it's applicable as well. ;)
