Meet Sam and Rafa:
“We met during class in the beginning of 2019 and clicked. [Sam] I first noticed Rafa because she always sang along with the Nancy Whiskey song and I thought that was so cool. Her energy and positive attitude throughout class was something I admired and gravitated towards.
We don’t hang outside of class, but we’d like to! We sometimes text and chat. We mostly spend our time together in class. [Rafa]I’m always happy when we get to see each other in class and a perk of zoom is that Talitha can’t keep us from being buddies during buddy songs 😝. I think it’s always nice to know someone in the class and have accountability and also just seeing familiar faces feel good. [Sam] Seeing her in class motivates me and always pushes me harder.
[Rafa] I love knowing people in the class and rooting for each person and remembering someone on their first day being frazzled and then totally nailing the routine later. [Sam] I didn’t think when I signed up for Zumba I’d make such a deep connection with someone, but Rafa’s friendship is so special to me and I’m so grateful for Talitha’s class for bringing us together! ”

This year's Giving Season spotlights our clients who connect on a wellness level with others from our class, embodying the Talitha Dance mission to build a wellness community. They bring their peeps, turning class time into us-time, and connect with class friends outside of the studio. For us, they put the TY (thank you) in community, and we’re so grateful to be able to share their stories!
