Getting to Know You: Miss Melissa!
Written by Joe Naftal on octubre 16, 2020

Today we are featuring Miss Melissa in our latest edition of “Getting to Know You”!  The “Getting to Know You” series helps us get to know each of the Dance Connection teachers and staff we get to see at the studio every week and learn a little bit more about them.

Why do you love teaching dance? I love working with children and helping to foster their love of dance. 

What is an accomplishment you’re most proud of? My proudest accomplishments are my 3 children.

If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be? I could definitely eat pizza everyday! 

What do you do in your spare time? In my spare time I spend time with my family. My husband and I have 3 young children so we do our best to get our kids outside and go on different adventures. 

What’s your favorite vacation spot? My favorite vacation spot is Mexico. However, right now we spend a lot of our vacations at Sesame Place.
