Here's to getting started

So I should have started this when I started getting serious about dancing. That would have been about a year ago. But back then I didn't realize where I would be end up. Dancing was a fun social thing I did to meet people, not a passion yet.

I started dancing in January 2009 at Salsa Heat Maitland here in Orlando. I went to their classes alone to make new friends and get out and start a hobby. I caught on quickly and was told that I would be a "rock star" on my first night. I haven't looked back since. That first class led to two classes a week, then Friday nights at Samba room. Then Saturday nights at Cuba Libre, socials and workshops.

In May of 2009 I started taking regular Bachata classes with Christian Sola and Tate Blomquist at Avalon Dance. I started devouring every class I could get my hands on. So two salsa classes a week and one bachata class, plus dancing on the weekends.

Orlando Salsa Congress was when I knew that this is what I really wanted to do. Since then I have joined a few teams, performed in Reno, LA, Miami and Atlanta (besides local performances)

My daily life now revolves around dance, from health and beauty secrets, clothing, nutrition, exercise etc. I hope to share my daily life in the hopes of helping or entertaining others.

All opinions are my own, and advice as well. I do not claim to be a professional yet, but I have been in the scene for a while and getting the hang of this! Please feel free to contact me regarding anything on this blog or anything else for that matter.

Here's to the future!
