Introduction: As the 2015 National Dance Teacher of the Year, you can expect great, personable dance instruction. I've been dance for over 12 years and teach all styles of dance, from Salsa, Slow dancing, Ballroom, Swing, Tango, Blues and Jazz. I am the previous owner of Overstreet Dance Gallery, a studio for all styles of partner dancing. Currently, I teach dance in Denver Public Schools as my day job.
Specifically, I am an international champion in Blues and Lindy Hop (Swing). I've toured the world teaching and performing from South Korea to France, Canada, Israel and all over the US. I love to dance and am proud to be a dancer, performer, competitor, and instructor. In 2008, I was awarded the Spirit of Lindy Hop award at Camp Jitterbug. In 2013 and 2014, I won the title of International Blues Dance Champion.
I am also the leading ambassador for Drag Blues, a contemporary Blues dance fusing Ballroomin', Strut, and Slow Drag. While based on vintage traveling Blues dances, Drag Blues has a defined technique and incorporates Swing moves and movements. I've choreographed for and performed in many theater productions, including SWING! the Musical and Home for the Holidays.
I enjoy teaching! It's my life's work. I teach all ages and coach dance professionally. The artistry of dance is beautiful and I'm happy to share it with others.
