“I'm Paula Bianca and I've been a dancer for as long as I can remember. I've trained in contemporary, cheer, hiphop, jazz, krump, pole dance, and aerial arts. My favorite thing when performing and teaching is inspiring the audience and my students to dance as well. My biggest fulfillment as a dance & fitness educator is witnessing my students discover the amazing things their beautiful bodies can do and tapping into the incredible versions of themselves they didn't even know existed.”
