I started to dance a soon as I could walk… I realized I could pair life lessons with teaching movement to inspire others to live their best life. Our journey here is filled with curves and ups and downs….having music and dance to accompany us, makes it all a little easier. I love the energy, comradery and community that teaching creates.

Movement in the body creates movement and joy in the soul. ~nr
