From the time she was little, Ayvah knew she loved dance – but it wasn’t until age eight that she officially began her training. Since then, she has studied multiple styles extensively, completed RAD ballet exams through the Intermediate level, and gained performance experience on stage. Today, she brings all of that training and passion to Ark Dance Academy as both a dancer and an instructor.
For Ayvah, dance is freedom: the ability to create, to tell stories, and to connect through movement. What drew her to Ark wasn’t just the opportunity to teach, but also the inspiring owners and teachers she learned from, and the incredible students she now has the privilege to guide.
Outside the studio, Ayvah enjoys quiet moments reading and watching movies. Her favorite things reflect her vibrant yet down-to-earth personality – dark purple, perogies with sour cream and bacon bits, and the joy of Fridays, when the weekend is about to begin. Her “boring superpower” is being able to sleep through anything, but her real gift is creating an environment where dancers feel seen, supported, and inspired.
Ayvah channels energy, creativity, and joy into every class she teaches, making her a valued member of the Ark Dance Academy family.
