Miss Chris:
Miss Chris has a Bachelor's in Psychology from St. Bonaventure University as well as A Master's in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Buffalo. She is a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. For her Master's Thesis she created a Dance Therapy Program for children recovering from the loss of a parent. She has taken class at U.B. and has participated in dance shows sponsored by both U.B. and Buff State. She has attended many teacher trainings including one of the last trainings from the late, great, Al Gilbert. She has taught for area studios including; Shery Martin's & Circle of Dance. She was a member of Unique Dance Co. for 5 years, and has performed in and around Buffalo, including the miss Western New York Pageant. She's been dancing since the age of 4. Since that time, she has always dreamed of dancing her life away in her own studio. It is a dream come true that METTS Dance is now a reality. It would not be without the help of her husband who made a wedding night vow to make this dream come true. She hopes that the one thing her students learn from METTS is self efficacy (belief in your ability to do). "Dreams do come true, they can happen to you if you are young at heart".
