Meet Your Instructor: Lauretta

Lauretta has been in love with dance her whole life. 

She studied ballet as a child, came of age during the era of 80's aerobics, discovered belly dance as an adult and took up pole dancing as a "mature" adult. 

She is very excited to share the beautiful and expressive art of bellydance with her students.
