Lauren
Hello all, my name is Lauren and I'm from Chicago, Illinois USA. I've lived in Kigali since 2013, and I love having a place to dance! I work as a freelance journalist, and I'm also a violinist, so I'm often amidst doing something creative! I've been dancing ballet since I was teeny tiny, and then branched out to other forms of dance like hip hop when I hit my teenage years. I love to dance, teach and choreograph, and City Arts is a great place to do it all! Pre-Ballet, Ballet I, II, III, IV, Hip Hop
