About

I am a dance instructor, choreographer, and movement coach with 20 years of experience teaching hip hop dance to students ages 3 through adults. My background includes teaching and managing at House of Mayhem and The Studio V, where I led classes, supported studio operations, worked with students and families, helped organize programs, and created a positive environment for dancers of all ages and levels.

My specialty is hip hop, but I also have experience teaching beginner dance, choreography, dance fitness, performance skills, musicality, confidence-building movement, and age-appropriate classes for young children. I have also led hip hop fitness classes designed to help students build stamina, coordination, strength, rhythm, and confidence while having fun. I am First Aid & CPR certified, and I bring a professional, safe, and encouraging approach to every class.

My ideal students are beginners, young dancers, and anyone who wants to build confidence through movement. I love working with students who may feel shy, new to dance, or unsure of themselves, because I believe dance should feel welcoming and empowering, not intimidating. I also enjoy working with students who want to improve their performance quality, musicality, rhythm, and stage presence.

As a teacher, I offer patience, structure, high energy, and a supportive class environment. My goal is to help each student grow at their own pace while learning proper technique, coordination, creativity, discipline, and self-expression. Whether I am teaching a preschool beginner, a young student learning their first routine, or an adult looking for a fun fitness-based dance class, I focus on making movement feel positive, achievable, and exciting.
