About Michelle & SoulFire Movement:

Prepare to be captivated by Michelle's fierce energy and contagious joy! A renowned dancer and model, she's made history as the first American International Dancehall Queen and shared the stage with artists like Mr. Vegas and Elephant Man. Michelle's unique blend of Afrobeat, Freestyle, and Hip Hop dance styles, coupled with her down-to-earth attitude, makes her a brilliant instructor who leads with heart and soul. While her classes are a high-energy workout, her infectious spirit will have you smiling and singing along the entire time. As a Dorchester native and certified chakra & color therapy practitioner, Michelle's passion for dance extends beyond performance. After becoming a mom of twins at 16, dance became her anchor, and in 2020, she founded SoulFire Movement, a transformative initiative that aims to foster community and emotional well-being through the power of movement.

Established in 2020 amid the pandemic, SoulFire Movement originated in the confines of Michelle's backyard. In response to the widespread physical, mental, and financial challenges experienced by many, the initiative aimed to reinstate a sense of community safely during this transformative period. Recognizing the personal need for dance and the absence of social connections, the decision to launch SoulFire Movement emerged as a natural response.
