Dance - in all its various forms, is a terrific outlet for learners to obtain exercise, regulate emotions, practice fitness, learn one of many creative life skills, and even encourage mindfulness. My goal is to create a comfortable, social, and empowering environment that ensures the process of beginning to acquire the basic skills of movement and hip hop dance is both engaging and memorable.

Enroll in this valuable course to learn the core basics of hip hop moves and grooves that can be used on the dance floor at anytime! This is a coed class aimed to help build confidence, social skills, creativity, arts / dance / music / theatre / performance skills, focus, memory building, incorporate acting out emotion through dance, lower stress, and encourage beginner-level coordination and rhythm paired with invigorating and age appropriate popular music.

This class is led by an internationally renowned and critically acclaimed / award-winning SAG-AFTRA/AEA Performing Artist with over 2 decades of professional dance experience in live theatrical performances all over the world. I have been teaching musical theatre dance, tap, hip hop, yoga (various disciplines), ballet, jazz and meditation / mindfulness techniques to children and adults since the age of 16. In addition, I am a trained Wellness (Health) + Life Coach. 

With that said, this intro to hip hop dance experience is meant to be fun-filled! As a child and adult that has lived experience with her own ADHD, I was thrust into so many dance classes at a very young age where the focus was "perfect technique" and getting the moves "just right". It was very challenging for me, and despite the fact that I ended up dancing professionally, it has always taken me some more time and practice than my colleagues to learn a routine. Therefore, it is of the utmost importance to me that this class be about smiles, creativity, confidence building, and enjoying the music while we groove with friends!
