Courtney is an avid lover of the African Diaspora who continuously gravitates towards expressing her African Roots through her first love, Dance. Some of Courtney's first memories include the stage, confirming her purpose on earth as a performer. She trained in various dance styles including Tap, Ballet, Latin, Hip Hop, and Reggae, but her favorite being the derivative of them all, African Dance! While attending Howard University, she expanded her love for African Dance by joining then leading one of the most revered African Dance Troupes, “Omoge”.

After finally focusing on her holistic health, she reached major fitness goals by changing her diet (Go Vegans!) and exercise regime to dance away the excess weight and stress (Adios 70lbs!). She currently aims to empower others to find the enjoyment, empowerment, and life-long benefits of fitness and wellness through African dance fitness as a certified KUKUWA® instructor who is excited to share African dance fitness with the world!
