This week's interview is with Sonia Rivera, Director of Diamond Dancers International based in Tampa, Florida.    Sonia is extremely passionate about salsa dancing, both the dancing and the culture. This passion exudes from her during our interview where we discuss topics like what makes a good teacher, dealing with salsa love and heartbreak and the education of younger dancers.   My favorite part of the interview was discussing how to become a full-time dancer. Sonia is one of the few  salsa dancers who has achieved this and she shares some tips and mindsets to have if you want to make salsa your life, both personally and professionally.    For more information about Sonia, check out Diamond Dancers on their website and on Facebook.
