Send me some love, lol feels weird to post about yourself when youre in charge of social media 🙃🙃🥰🥰
Hello! I’m Danielle, 37 years young, and I have been part of NLD since 2017! I began my journey as a volunteer while my daughter, Adelyn, took dance classes. I quickly formed a close bond with Angel, and from there, the rest is history. At the studio, I wear many hats: I serve as the assistant director, teach classes, and coach our competition team as an NXT coach. My areas of expertise include acro, musical theatre, and, more recently, contemporary/Lyrical dance! The dance studio and teaching are truly my happy place. I will be teaching Acro 1, Musical Theatre, Petite Ballet, & Petite Acro at the LP studio & Acro 1, Petite Ballet, Contemporary 2 at the BT studio this year!
When I'm not at the studio, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Mike, whom I've been married to for 16 wonderful years! We love to travel, shop, and cherish our quality time together. We have two amazing kids: our 18-year-old son, Landyn, and our 15-year-old daughter, Adelyn. You might see Adelyn around the studio, as she has practically grown up at Next Level Dance, being one of the original students since we opened. She is the reason I’m so invested in the studio; everything I do is for her. Her dad and I wholeheartedly support her throughout her dance journey. I am definitely a proud dance mom!
I like to think of myself as outgoing, funny, and kind, with a big heart. I love deeply, and once you've earned my trust, I am forever loyal! I am passionate about what I do; I have truly found my “thing” in life. I adore working at the studio, teaching, choreographing, and planning all the exciting activities. Beyond teaching, competition season is my favorite time of year. It’s such a blessing to be part of a child's dance journey, witnessing their growth and improvement. I never take that for granted! I am so excited for Season 9!!
