Hannah was born in Baku, Azerbaijan. She moved with her family to the United States at the age of 12. Even at a young age Hannah was bouncing around the living room and choreographing dance routines to show off to the family. Her love of dancing took actual form when she became a student of Fred Astaire Studios in Buffalo Grove and quickly showed the skill and ambition to become a professional instructor. Hannah was hired at the Fred Astaire Chicago Downtown location where she spent 5 years as an instructor before opening up her own studio in Park Ridge. Hannah loves sharing the “light-bulb” moment with her students, when a new piece of dance knowledge clicks and they feel success. Her other passions include volunteering at Heartland Animal Shelter and traveling the world with her daughter, Nora!
