It’s Summer! Part 1
Summer is here, and there are so many things I’ve been up to lately! Here’s a quick recap: Towards the end of the school year, it was decided that Valerie would accept a position as an assistant principal for the arts within the MAC family, working closely...
Spring Shenanigans!
Hi Everyone! I know I missed posting last month, but I was so busy that I didn’t have the time to. I will definitely do my best to bring you all up to speed on my crazy exciting life! The last time we connected, I had just returned from the FDPA in St....
Step Out of the Comfort Zone
So….the last time I posted I wrote all about inspiration and motivation. In essence, reminders for personal growth and achievement. This time, I want to share with you all how I was able to grow in so many ways by stepping out of my comfort zone this month!...
“beautiful minds inspire others”
This month, instead of providing everyone with a recap of my adventures (you can still check them out on my social media accounts, hint hint: FB, Twitter, and IG), I’d like to discuss inspiration, motivation, and the will to persevere in spite of the obstacles...
Goodbye 2017: In Retrospect
It’s the end of the calendar year, and we all have our list of resolutions ready to go. There they are: pinned to our dream wall, or jotted down on our to-do list in our planners. Heck, some of us even have them affixed on every corner of every part of our office or work desk…

Here’s a quick recap of everything that has happened in the past few months…

Summer Adventures: Part 2
Well, I’m back…and I can’t wait to tell you (and show you) all about the second part of my amazing summer!
After a little time to relax and reboot, I was fortunate enough to be invited to teach at a few summer intensives this summer, where I met some pretty amazing dancers from all over South Florida, as well as others who were visiting and dancing while on vacation (because what is a break from dance? lol). In addition to all the teaching, I had a little fun of my own trying to gather my bearings and get back in the classroom for myself…

Summer Adventures: Part 1
As promised, I’ll be telling you all about my adventures in the studio, onstage, and in between. The first part of the summer kept me quite busy, and I’m looking forward to all the craziness the rest of the season brings! But first, a quick recap of the past few weeks…
