Cher has been studying with Kaitlyn since her first class in Sept 2007. She is also an original member of Kaitlyn’s student troupe, the Apsara Dancers and acts as the Assistant Director. Cher found out about Kaitlyn from a news article in the Max Magazine portion of the Daily News. She had been looking for something to do in the evenings while her husband was working and was captivated by the photo of Kaitlyn on the cover. She read the article and put it aside but found herself reading it again later that evening. When she picked it up again in the morning, she figured some one was telling her something so she wrote down the phone number and contacted Kaitlyn that same day – the rest is history! Cher has taken workshops from Gina of Atlanta, Fahtiem, Blue Moon Dance Co., Mara of Cary, The Indigo, Hannan Sultan, Nahla Hamad of Greenville, Khalida Mahira, Bozenka, Myra Krien, Zafira Dance Co., Donna Mejia, John Compton, Zoe Jakes, Jill Parker, Ahava, Amani Jabril and of course, Kaitlyn. She continues to attend workshops with the enthusiastic support of Kaitlyn, as well as taking private lessons from Kaitlyn in Kaitlyn’s other passion, Indian dance.

With no previous dance experience at all, Cher had to force herself to attend that first class but has found great support, enormous love and valued friendships from her dance sisters and hopes she is dancing twenty years from now!
