Adjunct professor Renda Pettis took her first ballet class when she was 29. Now she teaches her own dance classes at Biola after a successful career as a dancer. Tori and Ariss sat down with Ms. Renda to learn more about her story, her life-changing encounter with dance and how that encounter transformed her confidence. Listen closely, because this episode is packed full of wisdom. We hope that after listening you’ll be convinced to try some form of dance or even sign up for Ms. Renda’s class (although it’s probably already full).
