Tiffany Ahotaeiloa grew up in Rock Springs, Wyoming with many interests, including: piano, voice lessons, gymnastics, musical theater, and—of course—DANCE! Her favorite color is blue, and she loves any treat with dark chocolate.

Tiffany has been teaching with Gotta Dance since 2010, with added contribution along the way. She enjoys assisting in many areas as Office Manager & Receptionist, Instructor & Team Director, Costume Manager, and Director of Online Curriculum. Tiffany loves Gotta Dance because of the people she gets to work with, including amazing co-workers, supportive parents, and enthusiastic students. She loves watching their faces as they recognize their own progress. As a parent, she loves Gotta Dance because of the positive environment. She loves that her children are surrounded by great people who inspire them to push themselves, work hard to improve, and accomplish hard things.

“Students at Gotta Dance are developing their talents and learning body awareness and control from people who truly care about them.” – Tiffany Ahotaeiloa

Miss Kelsey

I started dancing when I was 2 years old. I know all kinds of styles--Jazz, tap, lyrical, ballet, hip hop, breakdance, and tumbling--but I love contemporary most. Dance has grown to become my life and I enjoy teaching the skills that I,ve learned in my dance career.
I have assisted professional dancers such as Stacey Tooke, Mandy Moore and others. I toured with a competition company called Celebrity for a year all over the country. Dance is in my blood and it always will be.
I am currently getting my Masters in Social Work at BYU. I am married to a wonderful man and we have 2 beautiful boys. I enjoy reading Harry Potter and occasionally binge watching Friends with a bowl of popcorn. I have loved working at Gotta Dance and I have taken those kids and made them my own. I love to dance. It is my passion and it has always been something that has given me strength and comfort.

Miss Jeniece

Miss Brittany

Hello! My name is Brittany. I started dancing when I was three years old. I loved, and have great memories of, solo and team competitions growing up. When I reached ninth grade I made cheerleader. I did cheer all through high school. My favorite memory was competing inside Disneyland at Nationals.

I married my high school sweetheart and have three kids. One son in Jr High, and two daughters; one in elementary and one starting kindergarten next year.

I’m a sucker for sweets. I love warm chocolate chip cookies, brownies and ice cream. Cafe Rio is my go to restaurant. I love spending time in the mountains and traveling. My dream job would be to be a professional traveler.

After not taking care of myself for years, I finally decided to take a fitness class at Gotta Dance. After that class I was hooked. I started getting back in shape and enjoying being active again. I love dance type workouts (which Gotta Dance rocks at!) and doing CrossFit.

I’m so glad I get to teach dance. It brings me happiness and I love sharing that happiness with the kids I teach. I am also blessed to teach the adaptive classes. I love their sweet spirits and pure joy that dance brings them.

Miss Erin

Miss Alena

I’ve been dancing for 12 years on my school's dance company and at Gotta Dance. I’ve been tumbling for 7 years at many places. My favorite color is pastel blue, my favorite dessert is a Pazookie, and my hobbies are soccer, equestrian horse vaulting, cheer, tumbling, and dancing.
