Guest hosting the show once again, the passionate and talented Kia Williams, the 2022 IDEA Fitness Instructor of the Year, interviews her long-time friend, colleague and fellow dance aficionado Ashley Carter.

Hailing from the great state of Texas, Lady Carter is a dancer, dance instructor, model, coach and creator of CweensGuard Step and Dance, a dance business that specializes in step, heels and hip hop. Ashley teaches classes to both children and adults with the beginner in mind. Her welcoming and inclusive philosophy emphasizes fun and aims to build confidence in new dancers. As she says, “I am not trying to turn you into a dancer, I am trying to build your confidence to dance.” She often refers to her classes as the scrimmage. They are designed so new dancers can mess up, learn, challenge themselves and build up their self-esteem in dance to feel the joy of movement. It really boils down to having fun!
