Teresa Paul Daie

I have lived in the Phoenix area since age 6. I graduated from Northern Arizona University in accounting and worked as a CPA, including owning an accounting firm, for 6 years. I received a Masters in Public Administration and worked in development department at St. Vincent de Paul. I have recently become the Site Director for Dancing Classrooms Phoenix, a non profit social development program which uses ballroom dancing to transform lives one step at a time.

I danced ballet as a child and disco (showing my age) throughout college.  As an adult I was always on the look out for dance classes and would often take them at local community colleges or centers but would be discouraged when I couldn’t find what I was looking for or the availability of classes was limited.  I opened Abby Bella Dance Studio to give adults of all dance and fitness levels a place to come dance and experience the joy I always feel when I dance. I love to take classes from all the amazing teachers who have chosen to join my staff.
