Our Team
Sarah Melville
Sarah was born and raised in England and had a natural love for dance from a young age. She found a strong connection with Bellydance which grew into teaching and performing around the World. With her love of travel she spent many visits to the Dominican Republic where she studied, learned and fell in love with the dance Bachata. After transferring with her employment to America in 2011 she decided to give up her job and follow her Dance passion.
Galeno Navarro
Galeno was born in the Philippines. At the age of 17 he moved to America having no interest in dance. That was until he took on a counseling job in a summer camp requiring him to participate and help the youth perform ballroom dances on stage. Unexpectedly, he found he liked Salsa. The students told him that he can really shake his "hips" and even though he was embarrassed he always remembered that moment. From there he decided to pursue his new found passion.
