Isabella Grosso

Founder/Executive Director

Isabella Grosso is a California native who dedicates her time and energy to her one true passion in life: Educating and teaching the power of dance to survivors of sexual abuse and sex trafficking. 

Isabella shares a similar story: She was first abused at the young age of five. By the time she was twelve, seven different people had abused her and unfortunately not one of these people was a stranger to her. After years of attempting to heal from her trauma, she found solitude in dance. She discovered a sense of empowerment and reconnection with her body when she was dancing.
