About (from Dance Skate):
“Hey, I’m Dalila, aka Spinderella. I’m originally from New York but now based in Seattle, Washington. I’ve been roller skating since 2020, and what started as a simple activity quickly became a vital part of my life. Skating has offered me not just physical movement but also a way to manage my mental health and find balance. It’s given me the space to reconnect with myself and stay grounded through challenging times. One of the best parts of this journey has been finding an amazing community of skaters, with whom I’ve built a sense of camaraderie while pushing each other to grow and improve on and off the skates.
Since January 2023, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to teach roller dance classes at The Beacon Studio. It’s been a rewarding experience to share my passion for skating and guide others in developing their skills, whether they’re beginners or more experienced skaters looking to refine their moves. Teaching has added a new layer to my own skating journey, as I continue to learn alongside my students.
As a certified dance skate instructor, I’m dedicated to continually enhancing my skills and refining my teaching methods. With Morgan’s support, I’ve been able to broaden my instructional techniques and discover new ways to engage with my students. Skating is a fundamental part of my life, and I’m excited to keep growing in this journey and share the thrill of skating with others as they explore it for themselves.”
