Michelle Cloud -  Client Care Team (Evening) & Sales Manager 
Michelle is a native of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Her love of dance began very early in life, when her parents enrolled her in a school of dance at the age of 3. She went on to study and perform ballet, tap, and jazz. As a teenager, she discovered her love of hip-hop dance, which she performed and choreographed in high school and as an undergrad student at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte where she received her B.A. in Sociology. Michelle's love of dance, yoga, and Pilates is what led her to CORE Buckhead.  She understands firsthand how imperative exercise and movement are not only for physical health but also mental well-being. She is excited to use her business savvy, professionalism, and excellent customer service skills to assist existing and potential clients at CORE.
