Meet Tatum
Thank you so much for stopping by. Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, I found my love for dance at the young age of three. For over 19 years, I have continued to develop this passion for dance through my studies, which includes a large variety of dance styles; ballet, jazz, hip-hop, tap, lyrical, ballroom, and musical theatre.
My passion for dance goes beyond just executing steps. I believe dance to be an incredible form of self-expression and though many say love is the universal language, I would argue it’s actually dance. Culturally diverse and historically significant, dance can inspire young people to be open to exploration and discovery of not only the world but themselves!
