Born and raised in Greensboro, North Carolina
Key started dancing at the age of four years old.
Training in classical ballet, jazz, tap and modern dance for most of her early teens, dance was an integral part of her daily life. Key was later introduced to belly dancing upon reaching high school.
Key continued her dance education into college and earned her Bachelors of Art in Dance: Choreography, Performance and Theory at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. There she enjoyed exploring West African dance forms and modern Afro-Brazilian genres in addition to required fundamental dance studies.
In 2018, Key continued her studies by traveling to Salvador, Bahia, Brazil to train in Sylvestre Modern technique with Rosangela Sylvestre, Tribal Fusion belly dance with Camila Saraiva, and Classical Belly Dance with Gisele Silvas.
In 2023, Key fulfilled a childhood dream of becoming a licensed Zumba instructor and travels the world sharing her love for dance and fitness.
Key’s awakened spiritual journey became a huge aspect of her life and she now works to incorporate esoteric and metaphysical healing through the modalities of astrology, human design, numerology, herbalism, ancestral veneration and tarot into her practices to promote a more holistic, harmonious living.
