Micaela is passionate about dance and has over 20 years experience. She dances and teaches from her heart, mind, and soul. She loves to instruct and shares her skills and knowledge of dance to others. Her background in dance consists of choreography, competitive dance, professional dance (NFL and NBA), teaching in a class (team / group, couples, individual) environment, and stage performance allows her to instruct professionally and recreationally while making the dance experience fun and exciting. Micaela is full of energy, and she will have you on your feet feeling the joy of dance! No matter what level of dance experience an individual has, she will work with each individual to get an understanding of their dance background, abilities, and what each person would like to accomplish with her dance lessons. She's very patient and just loves to be around people of any age. I've had the most awesome and fun dance experiences with her when we danced together in a dance group of five. She is experienced in several dance genres and loves to gain dance skills that will contribute to her LOVE of DANCE.

Her warmth and concern with my feelings about who I was at the moment vs who I used to be. I enjoyed how she kept telling me how wonderful I was doing when I am perfectly aware of my sense of being and how wonderful I was not doing. She is so cute and fun. I look forward to our next class.

Micaela's patience, creativity & positive energy working with my son in Hop Hop, Dancehall, Reggaeton and traditional African style of dancing is so reassuring as a Parent to know there are still good, compassionate & knowledgeable teachers that lead with a purpose in sharing cultural knowledge for the next generation moving forward. I highly recommend Micaela teaching dance: youth to adults.

I have been attending fitness classes w MICAELA for several years. She is a gifted instructor. She like most instructors certainly knows her stuff, but how she applies it is her magic. She pushes you further then you think you can go, but does so in a fun and loving way. Micaela is never without a smile and positive outlook. She’s the “real deal”.

I had the privilege to work with Micaela and Dance with her years ago. She was life changing! The positivity that flows from her smile and heart can uplift anyone! She will push you to your limits and you will exceed your vision of yourself! She has turned into a role model & mentor for me and I thank God daily she came into my life. If you get the opportunity to dance/train/speak to her, take it, your life will forever be better!

Amazing and inspirational! Can you get any better than that combo? BlessUp events are fun, educational and really cause you to dig deeper into who you are so that you can be your very best based on how God created you to be. You really learn to live up to your potential. Micaela is a motivated and highly skilled Instructor and coach who is truly concerned with you as an individual and will help to walk you through your process of moving and reaching higher. AND... she doesn't let him slack off! She'll kick your booty with love! 😊💜 But again it's because she desires to see you reach your best you. I could go on for days, but just know that with BlessUp, you are a name and a person and not just a number or a face in a crowd!

Micaela is one of the most creative instructors I know. For more than 10 years I have been blessed to experience her creativity and energy first hand (I have both taken her class and performed along side her). Her classes forge a connection between the concepts of spirituality, freedom, and thought through various forms of dance and movement. Micaela creates a feeling unity while teaching, by channeling her expertise a well rounded dancer/choreographer and instructor/mentor by creating various high energy pieces that are both challenging and fun - an experience for dancers and movers of all levels .
