Since 2012, I’ve been sharing my love of line dancing with students of all levels — from brand-new beginners to confident intermediate dancers. What began as a fun favor teaching a friend’s Bunco group quickly grew into a long-term passion for connecting people through dance.

In 2018, I began teaching at Das Rec and HealthLink Fitness Centers, where I had the joy of watching students discover the rhythm, confidence, and community that line dancing brings. When COVID-19 changed the world, I didn’t let it stop the music — I continued teaching a small group of neighbors right on my driveway to keep our spirits high and our feet moving.

As in-person classes resumed, I returned to teaching — this time as a volunteer at CRRC in Canyon Lake, leading classes three days a week. When the seniors resumed use of their facility, I took a leap and started my own small business, offering line dance classes at St. Andrew Lutheran Church while continuing to volunteer at CRRC.

Over the years, I’ve also had the opportunity to teach at corporate events and co-host special day-long dance workshops with my friend and fellow instructor, Michelle Schroeder.

Today, I continue to teach two days a week and am excited to expand with new classes in New Braunfels. My goal has always been simple — to make line dancing fun, welcoming, and accessible for everyone, one step at a time!
