THE DAY WE LET LOOSE ๐
A week later and Iโm STILL thinking about this class. ๐๐ฅ
After an incredible few days at TUCON, we were all exhaustedโฆ but apparently we werenโt quite ready to stop dancing yet. ๐๐๐ผ
So we took it to the dance floor one more time!
And this class was SO special.
First, a huge shoutout to Kim for literally saving the day with the lights and bringing her energy to make the whole room come alive. โค๏ธโ๐ฅ
And to all of the Turn Up instructors who poured into making this after party happen ๐ฅ especially after an entire weekend of classes, training, dancing, and basically giving every ounce of energy we had. You guys showed up and made it happen, and Iโm so grateful.
A special shoutout to my Virginia Beach instructors for giving me the confidence to finally share some new choreography I had been sitting on. Sometimes you just need the right people around you to say, โGirl, DO IT.โ ๐๐๐ผ
And my girl Brigitte ๐ my roommate, my friend, and one of the people who can ALWAYS bring the fun. So grateful I got to experience this weekend with you. ๐
But honestly, one of my favorite parts of TUCON was the people.
The new friendships. The conversations. The real connections. The people I got to dance with for the first time and the people who felt like old friends by the end of the weekend.
And to everyone who came to the after party ready to be seen, be silly, sweat, laugh, and just HAVE FUN with usโฆ thank you. ๐ซถ
Because thatโs what I love about Turn Up.
You donโt have to be the best dancer in the room. You donโt have to know every move. You just have to be willing to show up and let yourself have a good time.
And looking back at these pictures, I really believe the people in that room were meant to be there. โจโพ๏ธ๐ซถ
TUCON may be over, but Iโm taking this energy home with me.
More dancing. More laughing. More community. More letting ourselves be seen.
And if youโre local to Orlando, come dance with me! ๐๐ผ

Whether youโve been dancing forever or youโre brand new, come exactly as you are. Iโd LOVE to have you in the room. โค๏ธโ๐ฅ
Letโs keep this community growing. ๐ฅณ
