How I got started dancing
I had a few months off after an overseas deployment, and there was no better time to try something I’d always wanted to do.
Why I love teaching dance
I think one of the greatest services people can give each other is to teach. We have a lot to learn from others. I love to help people overcome challenges and realize goals they have set for themselves.
What’s great about teaching at Revolution Ballroom
Marcia! She is one of my favorite people and a great teacher. Not to mention, “Ms. Marcia” is my 3-year old daughter’s idol.
Other interests, hobbies, & passions
My family (Corbin-husband, Everett and Giselle) are my biggest passion. I love everything Disney (even before I had kids), Volkswagen Beetles, and running (when I have time).
Most people are surprised to find out that
I was an MI Warrant in the Army, I speak French and Haitian Creole, I own a 1972 VW Beetle, and I teach in a virtual public school (middle school).
