Communication Leader
Raymond Ryan
Ray Ray Salsa fancies himself to be a leader...of "goofballery". He makes up words. He tells Dad jokes. He's in charge of training your Salsa apprentice instructors at International Dance Studio. Ray was thirty-five years old when he began dancing Salsa. He was a typical Ohio boy with two left feet, so he knows that if he can learn to dance Salsa, anyone can. He started his dance journey while stationed in Belgium, serving in NATO. He devoted twenty-two years to the United States Army. He's a dad of four, has a Great Dane named Brutus, and is married to the beautiful Annabel Valencia, of Annabel Valencia Photography.

Annabel Valencia
Annabel was born in Colombia but raised in Baton Rouge. The way to her heart is through a shrimp po'boy. All she had of her dad, after her parents divorced at an early age, were piles of black and white portraits he took of her. She loved looking at those photos and knew if she had kids of her own one day, she wanted them to have the same feelings. So in 2005 she studied film photography at LSU and got a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a concentration in Photography. She's been photographing ever since.
