What should students expect in your class?
<p class="font_8">Expect a challenging but enjoyable class focused on waacking foundations, musicality, performance, and self-expression. We’ll work on confidence, presence, and commanding attention—letting your personality hit as hard as your waack. Come ready to step out of your comfort zone, express yourself, and have fun!</p>
What's your message to your students?
<p class="font_8">If you’re looking to explore waacking, I’d love to dance and learn with you! My goal is to create a space where you can build your technique and musicality while discovering your own identity and confidence as a dancer.
