I’m a Professional Ballroom and Latin Dance Instructor, Couples’ Relationship Coach, Performer, Choreographer, and Partnership Mentor – these titles encapsulate my two-decade journey in this realm.
I have over 20 years of experience fostering deeper connections among couples through dance. I am a Certified Dance Teacher through the Canadian Dancesport Federation. I attend annual training at professional Latin and Ballroom workshops and congresses across Canada, and regular collaborations with renowned Relationship and Hypnosis Coaches.
Beyond dance techniques, my true strength lies in fostering connections. Pairing my extensive knowledge of partnership principles with insights from seasoned relationship coaches, I’ve crafted a unique niche. I teach couples to rekindle their bond and enhance their connection, leveraging the beauty of dance. My continuous workshops and collaborations ensure my approach remains fresh, impactful, and transformational. The culmination? Deeper, more meaningful connections, and a solid dance foundation for my clients.
With time, I’ve harmoniously blended my dance knowledge with principles of partnership, enriched by insights from life and relationship coaches. This fusion empowers me to guide couples towards a profound connection with themselves and each other, all while exploring the intricacies of ballroom and Latin dances.
For me, teaching extends beyond mastering a step. It's witnessing the joy in a student's eyes, the newfound confidence, the genuine connections, the radiant transformation that emerges. Every laugh, every self discovering, every achievement reflects my dedication to my craft. Embark on this exquisite dance journey with me and discover a world where your hearts and feet flow in unison.
Life introduced me to its challenges at a tender age. By the time I was 13, I found myself in the role of a caregiver, looking after my ailing father followed by my mother. Later, as a single mother, I cared for my three sons, two of whom faced unique challenges of their own.
To support my personal growth and to be the best mother and partner I could be, I sought guidance from various counselors and life coaches over the years. This path refined my aptitude in problem-solving, efficiency, and fostering deep emotional connections.
When I delved into the world of dance instruction, the lessons learnt from my life journey seamlessly integrated into my teaching approach. I realized Dance, much like life, demands patience, understanding, and an innate connection—not only with a partner but also with oneself.
Over twenty years of teaching, an essential truth has emerged for me: success in partnership dancing is anchored in mastering the fundamentals, establishing a genuine connection to the music, and nurturing an authentic bond with your dance partner. When these elements come together, my students and couples don’t merely dance – they embody and experience the rhythmic pulse of love in every step. This philosophy is not just a theory; it’s echoed in the numerous referrals I continue to receive, even from couples I had the privilege of coaching over a decade ago. Join us, and let’s dance to the timeless rhythm of love.
