in ballroom and partner dance. It is a passion that drives her to impact lives through dance at a physical, emotional, mental and social level.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">Growing up, Lisa trained in gymnastics, ballet and jazz from the age of 5-17. After sustaining an injury, she began her education in pursuit of a way to help others. While working on her undergraduate degree in developmental psychology, she became licensed as a massage therapist.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">After recovering from her injury, Lisa joined a circus fusion dance company in Baltimore where she performed modern and aerial dance, Chinese acrobatics and worked with fire apparati.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">After seeing so many dancers working through injuries, she was inspired to continue with a pre-med track to eventually study chiropractic medicine. However, that was when she found ballroom dancing and realized it was a style of dance she could sustain as a lifelong passion and share with others.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-51f6c8e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"51f6c8e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1427\" height=\"880\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/boise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/328\/2023\/05\/Lisa-Gentry.jpg\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048 wp-image-8104\" alt=\"Certified dance instructors Lisa Tice and Gentry Fielder wear navy blue costumes as they smile and pose at Fred Astaire Boise dance studio.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/boise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/328\/2023\/05\/Lisa-Gentry.jpg 1427w, https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/boise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/328\/2023\/05\/Lisa-Gentry-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/boise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/328\/2023\/05\/Lisa-Gentry-1024x631.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/boise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/328\/2023\/05\/Lisa-Gentry-768x474.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1427px) 100vw, 1427px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25d65b5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"25d65b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"block-fd4815137b11cb6bf2a3\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\" data-block-type=\"2\" data-border-radii=\"{&quot;topLeft&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;value&quot;:0.0},&quot;topRight&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;value&quot;:0.0},&quot;bottomLeft&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;value&quot;:0.0},&quot;bottomRight&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;value&quot;:0.0}}\"><div class=\"sqs-block-content\"><div class=\"sqs-html-content\"><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">Lisa became certified in American ballroom and partner dancing in 2015.
