How did Diona come to teach at Abby Bella?
The week before Abby Bella's launch party, we contacted Scottsdale Community College and the dance director, Angela Rosenkrans, send out an email to her teachers. Diona called and convinced us to teach ballroom dancing at the studio even though we had not planned on having any ballroom classes. She then trained in both Bella Barre and Zumba and has been teaching at Abby Bella since the very first day we opened.
