Teacher

Isaiah was born and raised in Visalia and began his dance journey at three years old! Isaiah’s dance training consists of ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, contemporary, modern, hip hop, musical theater, acro/tumbling, and partnering! However, Isaiah was a late bloomer to dance as he started dance training at various studios in Visalia throughout high school and was a part of the El Diamanté High School dance department under the direction of Megan Skadan.

 

In 2017, Isaiah started his coaching journey at Central California Gymnastics Institute where he coached dance, tumbling, gymnastics, and cheer for the past six years! He has worked with all levels and ages from four to eighteen years old! 

 

Isaiah continued his dance education/training at the College of the Sequoias and trained under Rebekah Meinert, Martha-Kelly Fierro, and Imara Quiñònez! He has also earned two A.A. degrees in Dance and Business Administration! Isaiah also attended Fresno State University for one semester as a dance major where he studied dance history, pilates, and trained vigorously in modern and ballet under the direction of Kenneth Balint, Koryn Wicks, and Anandha Ray! He was also a part of the Contemporary Dance Ensemble where he trained in a professional setting! He is currently pursuing his B.S. in Business Management at Western Governors University Online!

 

Isaiah is very excited to join for season 28 and can’t wait to grow with the DE family!
