Her passion for all things movement related has led her to Zumba and Yoga certifications as she hopes to reach hearts and bodies through multiple modes of body exploration. Following Martha Graham’s lead, she truly believes the body is a sacred garment that should be treated with honor and dance is one of the highest honors your body deserves.
