When I started working with children at the age of 16, it didn't take me long to figure out  this was my passion. Watching them grow and discover all the things they can do & it being more than they ever thought possible, is inspiring. After several years of managing a non-competitive children's fitness center I decided it was time to follow my own dream. My goal at Tumblebuddies is to create a program that is fun, where kids can thrive and reach their full potential. After dancing for 10 years I have experience with en pointe work, tap, jazz, modern, hip hop, character, and lyrical; winning  a few first place "I Love Dance" Competitions along the way. Most recently I have worked at a competitive gym as well, which gives me a more well -rounded perspective on the sport of gymnastics. I will bring what I have learned from all my past experiences to create a unique, fun, and educational experience for all children, whether it be in dance, gymnastics, or other creative activities.
