Meet Our Star Dance Instructor

Ravenay (Aka Raven) is a passionate dancer, K-pop enthusiast, and dedicated dance instructor with over six years of experience in the world of dance. Growing up, Raven discovered their love for movement through dancing at church, later exploring studio training before fully immersing themselves in the art of dance after discovering K-pop in middle school. This sparked a journey of self-teaching, growth, and a deep connection to the global dance community.

With a strong foundation in both self-taught and professional training, Raven has trained with Segno, a renowned K-pop dance crew based in London, and spent two years teaching at Elite Dance Center in Battle Creek. These experiences have shaped Raven into a dynamic and encouraging instructor who believes in the power of dance to inspire creativity, confidence, and community.

In 2024, Raven founded ARKADE, a vibrant dance club designed to provide a welcoming and inclusive space for dancers to explore their talents, connect with others, and grow both on and off the dance floor. As a teacher, Raven is committed to helping students not only fall in love with dance but also take their skills beyond the studio to build meaningful careers and express themselves authentically.

Raven’s teaching philosophy centers on creating a fun, supportive, and empowering environment where everyone can thrive. Whether it’s through K-pop choreography, freestyle, or technical training, Raven is dedicated to helping students unlock their potential and embrace the joy of dance.
