2024 has been an unforgettable year in my dance journey. From evolving as a teacher and choreographer to discovering more about my personal style, it’s been a whirlwind of experiences and growth. Here’s a quick look back:
1. Festivals and Performances
While 2023 was packed with socials, 2024 held its own magic. Some highlights:
Dancing at Adelaide Sensual
Performing at La Fiesta
Joining the stage multiple times with the incredible Funky Fellas
2. Growth as a Dance Teacher
This year pushed me to new heights, and I couldn’t be prouder of these moments:
Teaching Bachata Beginners on the fly at Vida Latin Festival in January
Surviving (and loving!) two intense 18-hour teaching weeks
Clocking a total of 526 teaching hours—averaging 10 hours weekly!
This was alongside working full-time, social dancing, and finding time for my own practice.
Other milestones included co-teaching a Bachata Sensual course, hosting a Salsa lesson at a Hen’s party, and contributing choreographic ideas for both salsa and bachata pieces at TSF.
3. The Launch of My Website
Beyond being a hub for my blog posts, class schedule, and private lesson info, my website marked a major step in taking myself seriously as a professional. It’s been a cornerstone of my growth this year.
Looking ahead, there’s still a list of unfinished goals to carry into 2025, but I’m choosing to celebrate the wins and stay inspired for what’s next.
Thank you to everyone who’s supported me this year—you’ve been a huge part of my journey. Here’s to an even bigger and better 2025!
