Whitney has been active in the Performing Arts world since she was a small child,

studying Ballet, Jazz, Modern, Hip-Hop, Irish-Step, Congolese, Flamenco and

exploring dance forms from throughout the world and eventually earning a minor in

Dance.

Before moving from California to Texas two years ago, she taught dance to

children and adults at several studios throughout the Los Angeles area. Whitney

also danced for a semi-professional basketball team. After graduating from Cal

State University Northridge with a Bachelor's degree in Broadcast Journalism, she

worked as a freelance journalist for Dance Channel TV and eventually became a full-time

her love for dance alive. In August of 2010 she began exploring dance fitness, and became a

certified Zumba instructor. Whitney recently moved to the Houston area, where she now

dedicates all of her time to teaching and creating! She can't wait to see you in her class! For
