Raquel Reynolds started dancing at the age of 3 with ballet, tap, jazz and hip hop. She transitioned over to ballroom, swing, latin and country western when she turned 19 as an amateur but went professional at the age of 22. After competing in ballroom, hustle and swing for a few years, she finally started teaching and eventually opened her own studio in 2006. In the studio setting, she trained wedding couples, social dancers, competitive dancers and even used her personal training certification for group fitness classes.  Her competitive career is quite extensive resulting in 6 World Championship titles in couples and line dance. She is currently one of three Superstar line dancers active in the United States. Other titles include top choreographer, open routine classic swing, Jack and Jill titles and strictly swing top wins as well. In addition to competing, she trains dancers around the country in line dance and provides custom choreography for showcase dances and competitive couples.  Currently, she has a home dance studio where she instructs a huge variety of dancers and trains for her own dancing as well.  She teaches 22 styles of dance in this location. She lives with her husband and his two children, plus they are expecting their first child in February of 2020. She enjoys landscaping where she uses her degree in horticulture and entomology, plays tennis and a variety of other sports with her husband and family, volunteering weekly at the local SPCA animal shelter and enjoying life.  She wants everyone to know that it doesn’t matter how you move, just as long as you keep moving!
