Candace travels the World to receive as much training as she possibly can. She believes that there is no end to her learning as a student herself or as a teacher. To always come to the classroom with fresh and new ideas about movement, the way the body works, how we all learn as individuals is always forever ebbing and flowing from one moment to the next. To dance on the stage with the constant understanding that she is beyond lucky and furtunate to do everyday what she is so passionate about and share with others that same passion and knowledge is a part of her wildest dreams. Knowing that to continue on this very path will bring to her all the joy, love, wisdom and happiness that she could ever ask and hope for.

 

"Every day is a gift, never forget to live your dreams to the fullest and never let anyone, especially yourself tell you that you cant do it! You can do ANYTHING...the most important people in my life have been telling me that for as long as i truly can remember!"
