The 2nd Fire Flow is in the can! I am so grateful to be a part of these beautiful artists' journey into fire movement. When I see people light up, every single time I'm so inspired to keep going, teaching more and more people to do this. The exhilaration, the thrill of dancing with fire is an obsession I've had since 1997. Wow! I love it so.
Had the BEST time spinning with Kelly and her daughters! Can't wait for the next MISA event. Come on and join us!
