Khetanya’s introduction to fitness began from her passion for acting, dance and music. She has an M.F.A. in Acting Performance from the University of Connecticut and is also a Fellowship graduate from the renowned Alvin Ailey School in New York City. She is trained in various dance techniques from classical ballet to West African dance and rhythms. As a performer, she has toured nationally and internationally performing for award winning companies such as Cirque du Soleil and has been featured in the films Hairspray, Enchanted, World’s Away and award winning film, Travelator.
To stay performance ready, Khetanya used dance, Pilates and yoga as a means to maintain a healthier and well-balanced lifestyle. As a student of these forms, she found herself sharing this information with fellow cast mates and often coaching and motivating them through warm-ups, cardio and proper alignment. This soon became her newfound passion, teaching.
As an instructor, she has trained with New York City’s top celebrity trainers as both an Instructor and Private Trainer. She is trained in formats such as Sculpt, Pilates, Barre, Boot Camp and Dance Cardio. In her classes, she will motivate, encourage and cheer you on as you strive for your best.
Everyday you will become stronger!
