"Thanks for your interest in my event :0)
I am originally from NY, and have attended various schools in the New England area. Had the great honor to learn from Frankie Manning since 1991. Moved to Connecticut in 2000, then moved to my current home in the Phoenix area in 2002. Combined my love of the dance with travel, and visited many dance scenes and friends since 2001.
Places where I have happily danced ....
