Live Ex (Living Experience)
About
I have personally gained my creativity in my style by my experience with other dancers and choreographers of many varying styles and genres. Allowing me to produce fresh steps every time. Understanding what stands out and what is considered "just movement"
My passion is in progress. My art is fueled by the sound of music. That of any genre. My intent in every moment is to excel and be different. As long as there's sound; for me there is movement. I get most out of coaching and getting outcomes that lead to progressive futures

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Measuring their strengths and weaknesses through improv or freestyle. From there; focusing on their weaknesses and what causes difficulty as far as body control or character. Then focusing on character, applying both to what their strengths may be and mold it as one.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I personally have work with basically all ages, from elementary up to high school, also adults and college students. Before this my mentors are all great teachers who have came from a era of struggle that shows their growth and from a era where a lot of famous artists came from where my mentors were deeply apart of. I've also learned through my students allowing me to perfect my projection on future teachings.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Pricing will be coordinated through means of purpose. For example; training opposed to teaching; or an event opposed to a single performance. Training will be a based price while teaching will be by the hour.
How did you get started teaching?
I ironically began teaching when I first started dancing. I first became a dancer when I was 17 yrs old. By the the time I was 18 I already began to teach altered movements to my peers and later that year received my first job as teacher (aide) with second and third graders as my students, with 20 students per class.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students who are trained and students who don't want to dance at all. Ones that enjoy dancing but choreography is a hair puller, and ones that are great with memory and following directions but may not know anything about dance at all. I personally enjoy hip hop over other genres but can work with all styles as I am well rounded. With this I have also taught students that are beginners but dominant in a specific style to their culture and was able to also make them well rounded.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
I personally know a big deal about the dance world, including celebrities and international and regional competitions. I through all my experience feel my style stands out above all because includes a piece of everything. My main priority is always be different and never the same. Anything I teach will always be fresh and new.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Understanding short term and long term goals. Needs and wants. Home and family. Fitness and character
