Meet Michelle.

I believe dance has the power to spark joy and transform the way people feel about themselves.

That's why I created Upbeat, feel-good fitness that focuses as much on your everyday happiness as it does on your long-term fitness goals.

Every person's health and wellness journey is unique. My goal is to make sure you always feel supported, energized, and find joy along your journey.

I can't wait to connect and dance with you!
