I stumbled across Nia when I was living overseas in Bahrain in 2008 with Nia Black Belt Instructor Jane Goodwin.  I completely fell in love with Nia at my very first class as it combined all of my love for movement- dance, martial and healing arts.  Jane planted a seed in me after class telling me to consider taking a White Belt Intensive.  Almost three years later and after the birth of my son, I signed up and trained with 1st Degree Black Belt Trainer, Denise Medved.  It was life changing and I haven't looked back since!  

I have had a lifelong passion for all forms of movement, dance, and fitness. I am a Certified Ageless Grace® Educator, 1st degree Black Belt in Taekwondo, and Certified Nia® Blue Belt Instructor. I have a B.A. in Theatre from the University of Central Florida and over 15 years of dance and choreography experience. I also performed for Tokyo Disney as an Amazing Living Statue.
