Tre's love and understanding of urban dance and hip-hop has brought out the inner teacher in the artist and has allowed her to travel the world sharing this knowledge through workshops, seminars and classes in hip-hop, urban and freestyle dance, and now, it's time to give back and Tre' is bringing it home.

Tré's competence and work ethic has made her a "go to" choreographer for various artists, including Sean "Diddy" Combs, Kreesha Turner, Sarah Brightman, Jason Derulo, So You Think You Can Dance Canada, MTV,and the just completed choreography for Ludacris' new Breakawaymusic video. And now, the talented artist brings, not only her dance skills, but life skills to the participating youth, firmly believing, by instilling confidence through performing arts, there is no stopping what they can accomplish.
