Being able to teach people to open up and become comfortable in their own skin through dance brings me joy. Creative arts through movement not only assists my students in reconnecting and staying in touch with themselves, it also allows them to evolve into whatever person they desire to become.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I meet the student during the first lesson and try to know them. I of course ask question about who they are, what they like and what their goals are. Once I've assessed them on movement, I then know what ways I will help them achieve their goals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've taking classess and studied with various teachers and iconic performers and instructors. I have danced professionally for 20 plus years in the entertainment industry and that experience alone has taught me limitless skill set.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
My standard 1 hour private lessons are $50 an hour. Anything thing pass that can be discussed in detail.
How did you get started teaching?
I started teaching private lessons for close friends and family members. Word of mouth caught on and I've been requested on a daily basis. I've also subbed for various teachers and taught in a few school systems and after school programs here in Missouri and in California throughout the years.

All ages and backgrounds.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
My Adult Hip-Hop Artibics Dance Class.
I started it because a close friend of mine was requesting help to assist her with loosing weight and lowering her high blood pressure. Her results were successful! She shared her story with others which lead to others wanting to join her in class. This began the private test classes that surpringly ran for 3 years.
Due to constant requests, I have now decided to start the class back up, in spring of 2020.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Reach out, ask questions and get started! Take classes, learn the skill set and have fun while doing it.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Really think about your "WHY". Ask yourself, why are really interested in taking classes and what are your ultimate goals?
