I have been a dancer since I was a child. My mother ignited my passion for dance ever since she first taught me the lambada and her favorite, cumbia, when I was 5. That small dance lesson in our very small living room almost 22 years ago, began my love affair for learning every single dance style from all over the world.
I have been fortunate to have had amazing teachers who taught me everything from Salsa to Zouk. Currently I am part of an amazing Brazilian dance company in Chicago. In which perform Samba, Axe, Forro, and many other Brazilian rhythms, along side the most talented women in the dance industry. I hope to continue learning new rhythms and being able to share them with everyone, while I am still blessed to be in this earth.

This was a very fun time. As a complete novice, I learned a lot. My fiance, who danced for many years, thought it was really informative and had a great time!

I'm not a dancer at all. Glad that Alex breaks down step by step for every dance. He won't move on until everyone feels comfortable with the step.
