WHERE ARE YOU FROM? WHY PORTLAND?
I’m Portland born and raised. It’s my home
​
WHAT MAKES YOUR CLASS SO AWESOME?
There is honestly no other class like Twerk N Fab ® We combine twerk dance culture with dance fitness, and create a vibe that’s uplifting, inclusive, and empowering.
​
WHAT IS YOUR TEACHING STYLE?
Accessible and Empowering is what I would call my teaching style. I love that I am able to bring fitness to anybody and make people feel amazing!
​
WHAT'S THAT EXTRA SPECIAL SAUCE YOU POUR ON ALL OF YOUR CLASSES!?
“Embrace the jiggle!” While most are trying to hide it, or get rid of it.. I say embrace it. My jiggle is my superpower lol.
​
WHAT QUOTE IS MOST LIKELY TO COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH DURING A CLASS?
“I need all the sass and ass”
​
IS THERE A SPECIFIC MOMENT THAT GOT YOU INTO FITNESS?
I have always loved to dance, but never imagined that love would lead me into fitness. I was in such a bad place in my life when I fell in love with dance fitness. It was my self-care, my motivation, my guiding light.. like straight THERAPEUTIC! From there I decided not only to live a fitness-based lifestyle but to teach it. I wanted to see all that fitness had to offer, and share it with the world.
​
WHEN YOU'RE NOT FITNESSING, WHAT ARE YOU UP TO? Family EVERYTHING!
I have 2 teenage boys, amazing home life, and a loving family. We enjoy so much together… from traveling to movies, concerts, etc.
​
WHEN YOU'RE FEELING DOWN, WHAT'S ONE THING YOU SAY TO YOURSELF TO GET YOU GOING?
“Love yourself like you want to be loved by others”
