Orignally from Guatemala a country of the spring weather and rain forests. Since my Kindergarten and private elementary years I have participated in the arts. I started listening to a Merengue group called Rana, a well known internationally through Central and North American countries. I Came in the 90’s to the United States of American to explore other cultures and expand my knowledge. One of the great influences that I had was my father. My father has taught me different Genres of music and the different ways of dancing to them. We have continue to dance and learned from each other since. Since my early age of eleven I have always kept myself up to date with the latest Merengue artists. I focus on creating and designing new concepts. I'm well versed in Spanish Nationalities countries parties and dance their different dance styles. I learn to listen to their different music and custom myself to their different cultures. In addition, I have attended to multicultural concerts like for example to the concert of the Columbian Singer Juanes. Theirs others singers that have inspired me, for example; Oro Solido, Grupo Mania, La Maquina de Puerto Rico, Elvis Crespo, best Bachatero of all time Antony Santos, Frank Reyes, El Jeffrey, Raulin Rodriguez, Monchy y Alexandra, and Kings of Bachata Aventura. I am able to adapt to teach any level for beginning to an Advance level of dancing. I love to teach others the skills I have gathered through my experiences. I know how to go step by step to assure that everyone learns the steps. As a dancing teacher I look forward to teach different dancing styles to future dancing student at different levels.
