  Adia discovered line dancing in 2017 and fell head over boots in love with the dance community and form of expression. After attending her first official Line Dance convention in 2018, she just knew she needed to share the variety of styles with her own line dance community. In 2019 she began teaching 

workshops to bridge the gap between "bar" dancing and "circuit" dancing. 

In addition to being a co-founder of Nashville Dace Fest, KickStart Country Events, The Edge Dance Event and YESSS!! Dance Convention, Adia specializes in teaching many different line dance genres as well as country swing and two step. Her 10+ years of coaching/teaching cheerleading and Zumba have served as a foundation to Adia’s line and partner dance instruction. 

Adia enjoys teaching lessons and generating enthusiasm at various dance spaces and one of Adia’s greatest honors was winning First Place with the United States Line Dancing Choreography Championship 2021 (USLDCC) for her dance Midnight Mess Around. 

You can find Adia dancing and teaching where she resides in Southern California as well as Country Bars all over the USA and dance conventions all over the World!
