For most of her life, Veronica has been making the music while other people danced.  She and her guitarist husband, Ted, were members of the US Navy Band in Charleston, SC, for 4 years.  After leaving the Navy, they formed a jazz/rock/pop trio, Seabreeze, and played in Charleston and on cruise ships sailing from Miami.

 

    In July 2005, Veronica reached a turning point in her life when she discovered Israeli dance, which quickly became her favorite.  She saw it as a beautiful combination of modern dance and ballet, and she began teaching classes in Jacksonville and Gainesville.

 

    In 2008, Veronica became a certified Zumba® Fitness instructor, and she taught four different class platforms through 2014. 

 

    After being involved with English country dance for 11 years, Veronica began calling for ECD in 2012 at her newly-built home studio complete with sprung wood floor. She also started a new Israeli dance group which continues to grow and occasionally performs in public.
