About Us

As a self taught dancer, Tina learned the value of self determination at an early age. A native of Sonoma County, Tina earned experience and acclaim in music, street dance and athletics during her school years. While attending UC Davis, she turned her passion for the arts, fitness and wellness into a popular example of master teaching not only to children but people of all ages. Tina is a natural teacher and role model who truly enjoys using arts education and fitness as tools to “crack-the-code” in child development that lasts a lifetime.
