Meet the Business Owner

Tanita Fadyeyola L.

Business Owner

I LOVE community and I LOVE DANCE!

I have been teaching dance to both adults and youth for over 24 years. I am trained in Jazz, Modern, Tap, Ballet, Hip Hop and Theater, but have extensive studies, training and passion for African and Afro-​Caribbean dance and folklore. I LOVE connecting the dots between many different dance forms and discovering other cultures through dance.

I’ve taught, performed, choreographed and provided coaching and movement training for Staff Retreats, Youth Retreats, Conferences, Festivals, Museums, (and more!) throughout the United States, Mexico and internationally in England, Scotland, South Africa and Hong Kong. So whether it’s the rear opportunity of getting corporates to loosen a tie or two at the Disney University in Burbank, CA or coaching the instructional staff at the Skirball Museum of Los Angeles in creating their own movement vocabulary, I just might have the ingredients to ignite your staff and/​or energize the SOUL of your business.

Tanita is a gem, and AfroFunk Dance is the most joyous, celebratory experience. It is a dance-​fitness class, but feels like a party, and Tanita is the reason for this. Check out her classes and you will understand the motto «dance is medicine,» because the feeling is one of elation when experiencing this practice. Thank you, Tanita! xxo

If you love to dance, take this class. If you’re scared to dance, take this class. If you’re looking to burn calories, feel incredible, be inspired, and surprise yourself — take this class. You will be welcomed & supported. You will leave joyful. Tanita’s class is more than dance. It is more that exercise. It is a celebration, a community. And if you’re like many of Tanita’s students, including myself, you’ll keep coming back each week for years — because it will become a beautiful, necessary part of your life, that changes you for the better.
