I have been part of Dance Specialties since I was 4 years old! I first started assisting at 15 years old and teaching at 18 years old. From a young age, I knew dance would always be a part of my life, and over time, that passion led me into the role of studio owner. I love creating a positive, welcoming space where every dancer feels like they belong.
