Leneé Braxton has been dancing since she learned how to walk. Born in Los Angeles, CA (a worldwide dance hub) and raised in Durham, NC (home of the American Dance Festival), movement is a part of Leneé's spirit. In 1996, Leneé made history as the youngest captain for the Inaugural NFL Carolina Panthers Cheerleader Squad. In August of 2000, after experiencing paralysis on the left side of her body, Leneé received a heartbreaking diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis. Grateful to utilize her dance and Kinesiology education, Leneé regained mobility and strength in what her doctors deemed "record timing". During one of the most challenging times in her life, Leneé discovered that dance and therapeutic exercise would be instrumental for her continued well-being. Leneé Braxton has a Bachelor's Degree in Dance, a Master's Degree in Exercise Science with a concentration in Sport Psychology, and is currently working on her Ph.D. in Mind-Body Medicine specializing in Ayurvedic Medicine, Energy Medicine, and Hypnosis for Optimal Performance.
