Lacey's Bio
Lacey began her journey into Tribal Belly dance at the early age of 15 in southern California with Patricia Johnson. She took this love for the dance all the way through high school and pursued a dance degree at Victor Valley Community College. She studied many forms of classical dance including Ballet, Jazz, Modern, and Ballroom. As fate would have it, Lacey sustained an injury that would prevent her from ever pursuing a career in classical dance. To her surprise though, her doctor approved of and encouraged her to continue belly dancing.
Lacey spent the next four years studying, teaching, and performing classical Cabaret Belly dance in Florida as well as in Southern California. It was in her last trip to California where her original love for Tribal Belly dance was re-ignited. She then made the decision that she wanted to bring her experience and love of Tribal Belly dance to Florida. So she began Florida Tribal Dance in November of 2006. Lacey is the director of Florida Tribal Dance Troupes: Aeonium Dance Collective, Blue Caravan, and Silver Sage Tribal: Florida Tribal Dance's student troupe.
Lacey's dance and movement certifications include:
