Denise Ceballos-Viner (Bella) has lived in Arizona for the last 20 years.  Originally born and raised in the Dominican Republic, she has made Arizona her home, along with her husband and four children.  It has always been her goal to bring the flavor, culture and love of dance - that she obtained while living in the Caribbean - to life, here in the Valley of the Sun.
 

Her mission started by becoming involved in various Latin cultural events in the valley. She spearheaded events such as founding Quisqueyaa Productions where she produced and orchestrated the original Dominican Festival that started in 2001, concerts and even instructed Salsa aerobics for five years. She realized how connected her mission was to the community and targeted the youth by working with various high schools and middle schools in Phoenix to bring forth multicultural awareness. One of her favorite experiences was participating in the annual parade of "Dia De Los Ninos" representing the multicultural side of Phoenix. She has worked with many well known Latin artists locally and worldwide, including Tito Rojas, Oro Solido, Fulanito, La Banda Gorda and quite a few other notable entertainers.

Bella Q Dance Studio is her next big venture where she plans to magnify the popularity of Latin Dance within the community by providing fun, energetic and feel good instruction to any and everyone. She always says "Dancing keeps you young and free".
