Teachers

 I have always loved dancing and the only thing better than dancing myself is teaching dance.  I love to see dancers grow and learn and gain confidence.  Previously, I taught dance at the Lehi Legacy Center and then from my home in Lehi.  After moving back to Cache Valley I signed my daughter up at Serendipity dance and fell in love with everything the dance company stood for.  As soon as I could I became a dance instructor and now I am excited to continue with Serendipity as the director.   I grew up in Mantua, Utah and danced for Jazzettes and later Infinity Dance in Brigham City, where I competed jazz, hip hop, ballet, lyrical, and tap.   I went to Utah State University and took every dance class I could manage and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education and a Bachelor of Science in History.  I am thrilled to be able to teach dance to so many great dancers and look forward to many more years.
