The energy in the room and what the student is willing to try brings out some magical moments.Īs a dancer, music is also key for me. The dancer(s) I work with also inspire me. Other times, the music leads me to create certain movements. Sometimes I will start with movement to see how abstract and unique I can make it, then put it to a song.

Going on runs outdoors is an enjoyable pastime for me, but I have to say my biggest passions are dancing and teaching. Some hobbies I have are creating custom birthday cards, writing personalized poems, and painting my nails with festive designs, especially during the holidays. I dance for Houston Contemporary Dance Company and teach dance for age seven to adults in the greater Houston area. RD: I’m a dancer, dance instructor and choreographer.
