She has a vast background of dance experience since she was 2-years-old in every style. Her favorite is ballet because she loves the fluid movements, but she enjoys all styles that we offer. Beyond dancing, she was also a theater kid and enjoyed performing onstage.

It made her feel happy and fun-filled all over again like her childhood memories. When the opportunity came to help with social media and marketing, Ashley was excited to take on the role.
