Kimberly Darling is the founder of Empowered Body Center for Performing and Healing Arts. 

Kim has studied dance most of her life, beginning with the Sternfeld School of dance, under the instruction of Jean Vilers.  She then continued to study in college, and after having taken classes in focused studies of Tap and Jazz, American Smooth Ballroom, Zumba fitness and Zumbini.  She loves sharing the gifts of choreography she has with everyone and believes that dance is a therapeutic learning tool which can enhance healing of mind body and spirit, while teaching life skills of self commitment, body care, knowledge, self discipline and wellness.  

From an early age children can learn the responsibility, determination and build self confidence once they become comfortable in their sense of self. This has been a mission of Kim's since the inception of Empowered Body.  

If we can make an early influence on the Importance of consuming good food, incorporating exercise by doing something you love and gaining self confidence, we can create a generation of healthy happy children.

Tap and jazz facilitate the knowledge of rhythm, self expression, strength and team work when working with a group.  Trust and self confidence are big steps in the path of learning, ones that will have a life long effect on our youth.
