a wide array of genres. She has been formally trained in ballet, hip hop,
jazz, lyrical, contemporary and African tribal dancing. She began her

C for an extensive amount of time Joie also began teaching beginning ballet
classes. Soon after, Joie moved to San Diego where she took numerous classes
with Culture Shock of San Diego and the University of California, San

dance show. After spending her undergraduate years in southern California,
Joie has found her way to Ariel studios and is ecstatic to be teaching
