I walk across the street to the building opposite my house. With my bag over my shoulder, I stand at the entrance of the building, looking up at the sign.

I take a deep breath as I walk into the studio, into my studio. Official classes start at 2:00 pm, but I always come in an hour earlier, where I have my own class, warming up and keeping in shape, enough to still dance.

As you walked into my studio, there were a few photos from overtime over the walls, in hopes of inspiring my students.

After being a part of the Royal company, for six years, last year I left the company on a good note, and opened my own studio back in New York City.

Sadly, it pained me to leave the company and all the friends I had made in London as well as London itself, but after having this studio for two years now, with the most dedicated and passionate students, I really have more than what I could ask for.

After my class, the rest of the day starts off with my babies, who don't go to school, so I have them until 2:00 which is the most adorable class. Their parents love to come in and watch as I teach them very basic steps, while they smile and laugh.
