    My daughter is on her 3rd year at, Central Florida Hip Hop. She has developed a love for dance and amazing skills and has become part of a dance family!! All thanks to Coach T!! When my daughter first started she didn't believe in herself, but Coach T saw my daughter's potential. Tavia has spent the past couple years building my daughter up emotionally and physically as well as all the other girls on the team. Tavia has a gift of team building, a true love of dance and the kids mean the world to her. I am truly thankful she is my daughter's coach.

    Coach Tavia and Coach Alysha have made my shy baby girl into a dancer that will shock you in amazement everytime she hits the stage. They give it their all to make their teams the best that they can be. I have seen every child that commits to CFHA blossom into dancing divas. Give them a try! You won't be disappointed.

FAQs


What is your typical process for working with a new student?

When working with a new student I typically trying to find out first of all their skill level  Im very good with using their skill level that they're on and I make them look amazing. My beginner students always come in 1st place after a few months of practice with me. 


What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I've trained at a number of studios in the Washington DC area.  Dance Place and The Washington School Of Ballet. I've also done some master training and a number of workshops around the US.  


Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.

I usually charge 25 an hour for privates 


How did you get started teaching?

I got started teaching in church in the 90s. I opened up one of the first Christian Performing arts schools in the Washing DC Area.  


What types of students have you worked with?

I've worked with all types of students from beginner to advance.  I even worked with students with disabilities such as ADHD and autism.


Describe a recent event you are fond of.

I recent performance that I'm fond of is I just did my own special performance for Disney with my dance studio


What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?

Check their background and see what kind is teach they are not all good good dancers make good dance teachers. Some think just because a person is good at dancing that they will be good teachers and that's not so.  A good dance teacher is going to make you look amazing at whatever skill level your on. 


What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?

I think the student should really have in mind exactly what they want and what they expect from their experience with the teacher. Some students have unrealistic expectations of a dance studio.  Example they want you to make them look like Beyonce when they just don't have the skill. They expect the teacher to have a magic wand and turn them into Beyonce over night. It takes time to acquire skill. But then there are some that are born with instant swag and those that learn it.
