“My children and bonus children are now grown. I had to find something to do for ME,” Clyburn said. “This group is not only providing an environment to get together and dance/exercise but also meet new people and develop new friendships. It’s a win-win!”
— Lashonda Clyburn, Smooth Steppaz dancer
“As a disabled person, Smooth Steppaz has made me feel like I can accomplish anything I put my mind to,” Carter said. “I didn’t have confidence that I was able to do a lot of movement without being in pain, but I leave practice and events feeling more confident in myself without any judgment or pressure from anyone.”
— Marcia Carter, Smooth Steppaz dancer
“The SOMD Smooth Steppaz is more than a line dancing group, it’s a group of unity where one can be their authentic self. This group is a family where we create memories through dance and travel, curating memorable moments that will last a lifetime. I’ve found my happy place and am grateful to be a part of this movement.”
— Michelle Pottinger, Smooth Steppaz dancer
