Meet Rhonda

Best Virtual "Pivot"

Dancers of RVA

When I was younger, I wanted to be a Solid Gold dancer (I'm telling my age lol). While that dream didn't come true, my love of dance remained.  About 10 years ago I discovered urban line dancing and was instantly hooked. I began attending weekly events and every class that I could. One of my classmates (and dear friend) encouraged me to begin teaching my own class. I started with 1 class in 2013 and currently teach 4 classes per week...thanks to modern technology.

I began teaching my classes live on Facebook primarily for 2 reasons: (1) to maintain a sense of normalcy during these stressful times; and (2) to remain connected with my students and to keep us all dancing. In addition to my regular students, dancers from all over the country log on to line dance with Rhonda. My virtual class is filling the “dance void” for those whose classes stopped and have not resumed. For some, it is an introduction to urban/soul line dancing. To many, it is a welcome distraction from the world’s events.

I am humbled and honored to be nominated in the RVA Dance Awards Best Virtual Pivot category.
