After completing her Bachelor’s Degree at Ashford University in Clinton, Iowa, Jennifer began

alongside the Royal Caribbean dancers for Royal Caribbean’s themed night events, and several Air
Force Bases on the west coast. Jennifer has been featured on several news reports representing Six

Entertainment including an appearance on So You Think You Can Dance/ On Tour for Hosting
National Dance Day 2010 in Dallas/Fort Worth. Jennifer also served as Dance Captain for 2009-2010
Krunchettes for the Indoor Football League the North Texas Crunch. From 2015- current Jennifer

Jennifer spends hours each day perfecting her craft in dance and also teaching all ages in several

the PDC On the Go… instructing Ballet and Hip Hop at Daycares, and began working with Performers
in the Professional Theater, which as of 2017 became known as The R.A.D Foundation.
Jennifer created Palace Dance Center & The R.A.D Foundation for not only dancers, but for anyone
whom is inspired to move. Palace Dance Center is a place of dance/entertainment, but most
importantly a place to enjoy dancing, to gain inspiration, and see the beauty in yourself no matter
who you are.
Palace Dance Center &The R.A.D Foundation allows dancers of various ages and genders to
remember what dance is all about “Art”. When you are creating pieces of art, there is no right or
wrong way to create, although there are many ways to perfect the presentation of the piece.
Palace Dance Center & The R.A.D Foundation allows your dancer to create art through bodily
movements.
As Instructors, using our learned skills we are able to inform each dancer about a proven factor on
how they will be able to execute dance steps in a confident way by using specific muscles and
breaths to insure smooth transitions.
Palace Dance Center: “Where every dancer gains confidence, and is treated like Royalty”.
