Annie Griffith
CO-FOUNDER & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Growing up with a brother with Down syndrome, Annie always felt drawn to work with these individuals and she has always had a passion for dance. She took her first dance class at age 5 and continued through high school. She found herself back in the studio in 2013, when she started teaching adult dance fitness classes. She is thrilled that she is able to bring her love of dance & the arts to the DFD community.
Sari Anna Thomas
Co-FOUNDER & ARTISTIC DIRECTOR
Originally from Seattle, her love for dance started early, bringing her to Los Angeles in 2000 on a scholarship to EDGE PAC. She danced professionally for 5 years and in 2006 began transitioning into directing, choreographing & teaching. In 2013 she began dancing with the Down syndrome community and continues to be deeply inspired by the work. She is humbled & grateful to have the opportunity to guide dancers through movement in a way that inspires creativity & self-expression. Her approach in the classroom is unique, as she has found a way to conduct class where everyone of all ages, levels and abilities feels challenged, supported & successful.
