Events Coordinator
Donna Garcia
Dancing is my passion. I’ve been dancing since I was a little girl. Life put me in the Corporate world for 40 years while raising my children. Now that I have retired, I have dedicated my life to helping to bring my love of dance to the folks in the communities around me. I am a Pro/Am Ballroom Dance competitor and compete with my grandson, Jayden Leighty. We train with champion ballroom dancers. I also love Country Line Dancing. You will find me kicking up my heels at our Country Line Dancing events along with teaching a dance or two!
