I’ve been moving my body since I was a little girl—ballet slippers, gymnastics mats, and a deep love for expression. In college, I found modern dance and started choreographing to Pink Floyd and Ministry—moody, raw, and a little rebellious.
Then salsa found me… and everything changed.
One night at an outdoor salsa event in Los Angeles—thanks to my mom—I got pulled into a rhythm that hasn’t let me go for 25 years. It became my obsession, my edge, my release. I joined a salsa team, pushed past every comfort zone, and discovered a whole new side of myself—bold, magnetic, and fully alive.
Salsa isn’t just something I do.
It’s the love of my life—and you can feel it in every step.
Playful. Powerful. Passionate.
Welcome! I’m Sharon. When I’m dancing I feel effortless confidence—playful, feminine, and fully in my body. Not performing… just enjoying myself and inviting you join in!

While I love performing on a stage, my favorite is street salsa. In the moment, improvised, and wild!
Life is a blur when you are always spinning. I’ve enjoyed dancing in the best salsa clubs, outdoor Summer events, Salsa Congresses, and even at elementary schools and corporations. I have taught beginner classes to little kids for their DARE to say no to drugs and yes to dancing. Company employees had a chance to shake the sitting out of their seats during a lunchtime salsa class with me.
My hips shake and my shoulders shimmy to the rhythm of the music as it moves through me—every beat waking something electric, playful, and a little wild. In those moments, I’m not thinking, I’m feeling—free, alive, and completely turned on by the joy of expression, letting my body speak in ways words never could.
