I embarked on my tennis journey when I became my wife's hitting partner, gradually immersing myself in the game and honing my skills. As my love for tennis grew, I ventured into competitive play, discovering a true passion for the sport. Inspired by my progress, I began sharing my knowledge with friends, helping them improve their game. This led me to catch the attention of two esteemed teachers: one from the renowned Strawberry Group in Tiburon and another from the YTA Youth Tennis in Oakland. Since then, I have cherished every moment of my involvement in tennis, teaching others and continuously expanding my own expertise, all fueled by an unwavering love for the game.

Embarking on a journey into the realm of dance five years ago, I am fortunate to be experienced in many kinds of dance including ballroom, salsa, and Afro-Cuban dance. The profound impact of body movement as both a hobby and a healing tool immediately captivated me. Recognizing its transformative power, I delved deeper into this passion, immersing myself in Afro-Cuban dance and salsa. My mission is to impart the fundamental body movements inspired by African and Latin dancing, empowering individuals to embrace their bodies and find comfort in movement. In my eyes, body movement is a universal healer, and I'm dedicated to guiding and opening up hearts and bodies through the joy of dance.
