Sonja Marie started her training in a small Florida studio that focused on classical technique.  Her love of ballet and modern grew, she had the privilege of dancing with two large companies before her performing years were cut short by injury. Limited mobility inspired the merger of her dance education with psychology and childhood development. She has over 20 years teaching experience with students of varying experience levels as well as multiple dance genres. Sonja whole-heartedly believes dance is beneficial for everyone. It is her goal to use her love of movement to train and inspire the next generations of artists.
