No, just a desire to be in class.

The instructors will build on what is learned in prior weeks, so it would be best to not miss class. We will send out short review videos after each class. Contact info@infiniteflowdance.org to discuss if you have conflicts.

Instructors
Shaheem Sanchez is a talented self-taught dancer who went deaf at the age of 4. Shaheem always loved to dance and wouldn't let his inability to hear the music change that. So, he taught himself how to detect the music's vibrations instead, letting the feeling drive his rhythm. He comes from a family of dancers, who call themselves “Family First Crew”. They competed in Family Dance Off in 2013 and placed second. Sanchez now lives in LA and is pursuing many opportunities in the dance industry. In addition to getting his personal story out to various mediums, he is working on a TV show and a movie. He is out to make a difference in the deaf community through his love of dance. Sanchez wants to demonstrate that regardless of their inability to hear, deaf people can do anything they desire. Shaheem has been dancing regularly with Infinite Flow since 2016 and has been the lead instructor for Infinite Flow Kids since 2018.
Caroline Blaike is a freelance ASL performer and interpreter. She has made it her mission to advocate for equal access to art, media, and culture, specifically for the Deaf community. With a Bachelor’s in Deaf studies, and a Master’s in social work from Gallaudet University, she noticed a lack of equal opportunity for Deaf talent in the entertainment industry. As well as a need for more accessible media. Currently residing in Los Angeles, Caroline continues to produce and create accessible content for the sign language community. Caroline has been working with Infinite Flow since 2019.
