Sarah Silverheels Keller
Sarah’s dance history includes studying with dance masters
of Guinea, Congo and Trinidad. In college Sarah studied
modern dance and jazz. More recently Sarah has been studying
Brazillian dance in various workshop around California.
Sarah has worked with dancers of all ages for 20 years. Her
goals are to share the joy of movement with all who wish to
learn to dance. She believes dance is a gift to all of us.
Some of us can move with ease and others face greater
challenges; in her classes students can go at their own
rates. Sarah believes dance increases flexibility, helps
with cardiovascular, improves coordination, builds muscles
and brings joy to all. Class goes on hiatus during the
summer and recommences on September 22nd and continues all
fall, winter and spring. You can call Sarah at 530-292-1901
