Lady Heather Nicneven

Artist and Instructor

Heather grew up in Maryland and southern Pennsylvania. She started dancing at age eight and took several years of ballet, tap, and jazz before moving into music and theater. She plays the flute and was in the marching band and pep band in high school and college. This is why she has great musical timing and can help with finding the beat and matching the musical phrasing. She returned to dance in 2002 when she became an Arthur Murray trained ballroom instructor. She continues to enjoy learning new dance styles and ways to move. In 2012 in California., the hula class she was planning to take was cancelled so she switched to belly dance and has actively pursued it since. She Community and sorority are what belly dancing encourages. Belly Dance caused her to find Burlesque and she's danced public and private performances.
In 2015, she attended her first social painting class at a Brewery and found a love for creating artwork and is an Associate Social Artworking Instructor.
She's always been a writer, keeping journals off and on since high school.
In 2021, she joined Paulette Rees-Denis in an online journaling group and has reconnected with her words.
Her desire is for everyone to find the love of dance and movement and reward themselves with goals that last a lifetime.
She holds certifications in Global Caravan Collective Soul Level One and Tribal Grooves.
