‘Sweat in Heels’: Enter HER Era!

Last month, we loved her loud. This month, we become her.

Sweat in Heels: 'Enter Her Era' is a high-energy heels dance experience designed to help you step fully into your main character energy.

Because confidence isn’t just about speaking up — it’s about presence. It’s about how you walk into a room. How you hold eye contact. How you move. How you decide.

Through an empowering heels choreography session, intentional recovery, and a guided identity embodiment workshop, you’ll define and practice the version of you who leads.

This is not about perfection.It’s about ownership.

Come close out Women’s History Month by stepping into your best era. We can't wait for you to meet the next version of yourself!

Here's to.. Movement. Identity. Embodiment. Community.

Who are the Instructors?

Holta Tegu is a former High School Principal and passionate educator of 15 years who founded two mission-driven companies - SustainED Cnsulting and Sweat & Heal. Having experienced firsthand the negative impact the work had on her own mental health and that of countless others (i.e. doing good work, but at the expense of oneself), she founded "Sweat & Heal" - a wellness space dedicated to empowering busy women to move, nourish and & heal with ease - making wellness accessible, sustainable and so much fun!

Holta's a NASM certified personal trainer, an integrative nutrition health coach and a behavior change specialist who provides both virtual and in-person programming for her community. Virtually, sweat & heal members have access to 650+ workouts, real-time and past challenges (core, full body and legs & glutes), LIVE dance fitness classes, daily nutrition tips and so much more!

Given her background and continued work in education, experiencing firsthand the impact it could have on one's overall health and considering the number of educators leaving the field entirely, she hopes to bridge the gap between her two worlds by targeting educator retention and working to answer the question, "how do we avoid burnout and sustain the good work we're doing?"
