My Dance Story
I joined the Lindy Hop Craze in 1996 during the Swing Revival but I quit in 2000 when I got married. I returned to my passion in 2010. From Lindy Hop, I branched out to its sister dance west coast swing, then country, and finally ballroom and Latin when I started my dance apprenticeship to become an instructor.
I taught for two different dance studios before becoming an independent dance instructor. I taught country lessons at Wild West, 151 Saloon, and Stetson Dancehall. I managed Braun Hall, one of the Old Texas Dance Halls and event venues. I served on the board at Alamo City Swing Revival where I am sometimes a guest teacher on Monday nights. Currently, I teach private lessons out of my home studio room.
Dance is therapeutic and healing, and serves as a medium for many types of personal growth. Movement through physical connection is an art of communication, so every dance with each person is a different conversation every time. I provide a welcoming and easy going atmosphere in my private lessons, my group classes, and on the social floor.
