What struck me most about Menina's story was her incredible resilience. Growing up in Canada with parents in the dance industry, she fought against their initial skepticism to pursue her dreams. At just 18, she secured a U.S. work visa independently and made the bold move to Los Angeles. Within months she was dancing alongside industry giants like Paula Abdul and Britney Spears. During our conversation, Menina shared how motherhood prompted her first major career pivot from performing. But what I found particularly fascinating was how the COVID-19 pandemic, despite its challenges, became an unexpected catalyst for her business transformation. After experimenting with virtual dance fitness classes and facing numerous setbacks, she discovered her true calling: mentoring aspiring dancers through her program, Business of Dance.
