Miss Sophia
Sophia has had the joy of dancing at His Feet for 8 years and has enjoyed every minute of it—the friendships, techniques, teachers, Christian environment, and love put into every aspect of the studio. Sophia has a burning desire to worship the Lord and His Feet Dance has given her a beautiful opportunity to fulfill this desire through dancing.
Since 2018, Sophia has been studying ballet, pointe, lyrical, contemporary, and PBT classes under the direction of Emma Hackel, Hannah Hackel Manwiller, Carissa Parunak, Katie Hart, Abby Tessier, and Karen Ingersoll. Outside of His Feet, she has had lots of experience in musical drama, rhythm works, music, and swing dance. Sophia has also received the opportunity to train with professional Christian companies Ballet 5:8 and Ballet Magnificat in summer intensives and workshops. She is a certified Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) instructor and is working towards her His Feet Dance Beautiful Feet and HBtA certifications.
Sophia loves working with kids and helping them discover the gifts and talents God has given to each of them!
“I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.” - Romans 12:1
Sophia notes that this verse clearly emphasizes the beauty and connection of spiritual worship to physical actions (like dancing). We must choose to surrender our very beings to glorifying God!
