About
I don't teach how a teacher would, I learn how my student learns and I build confidence within them to be comfortable enough to express themselves through the art of dance anywhere it's all about having fun and believing in yourself
I love helping people and building the confidence within. The best thing I can do for the world is motivate the next generation to be the best they can be!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
The main goal is to gain a new friend and show them all the wonderful fun things about the hip hop dance world. Like all things learned we will start with the basics, practice and discipline them until we are confident to develope new skills. As a Teacher I'm only here to help and build up the confidence in you
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a self taught hip hop freestyle street dancer. I have been dancing for 18 years starting seriously at the age of 10. I did not perform much when I was young but by the age of 15 I joined my east Stroudsburg highschool south step team and performed with them for 4 years. In highschool I also used to participate in lunch room and after school battles. A few years after I graduated I went back to my highschool to help teach as well as becoming an instructor for the first time at Mrs GiGi and companies dance studio (a studio in my hometown) throughout the years I've also have traveled and battled in dance competitions in NY, NJ, Philly and Bethlehem (videos on YouTube Mario Magoo). I just moved to Vegas but I've already connected with some of the local dance community entering a few battles and teaching at Gotta Dance Studios and ID Dance Company.

How did you get started teaching?
