KIOMY MARTINEZ

“My experience training with Lanier was amazing. He is such an amazing performer and teacher. He is all about lines and self control. Lanier can definitely master any type of dancing from ballet all the way to break dance. Lanier focuses on self control and that’s something that I was very interested in since I have been told multiple times that I tend to lose my self control. He is an amazing individual with a very particular mindset. He wants to put himself out there in Huntsville and work with those that really want it. Huntsville is full of great dancers and Lanier is the perfect person to help us dancers from Huntsville AL come out of our comfort zone and actually start training to start our dream career. What Lanier stands for is what Huntsville has been missing for years.”
