I dance because dancing makes me feel free. I created this channel, IndepenDANCE, to share my love of dance with the world and to help others find freedom & joy through movement. I've been dancing since I was six years old and have studied tap, jazz, ballet, Filipino folk dance, and belly dance. From personal experience, I know that it can be hard to just turn on music and start dancing. Sometimes we need a little direction, inspiration, and loving guidance. That’s why I create dance routines where all you have to do is follow along with me. My hope is that my dance videos help you to feel free and joyful & also inspire you to dance & express yourself in your own beautifully unique way.
