At age eight Tameka danced with her father at an annual family reunion and has not stopped dancing since. Through observation and self-discipline she taught herself various hip hop moves and was able to put them to good use at local school dances and exhibitions. She began her studio training in high school on a dance team at the All-stars studio in Cincinnati, OH. Although she was a late starter, she was determined to compete. She competed in both the hip hop and jazz divisions of the Star Quest International Performing Arts Competition in Columbus, OH with impressive results. Being a natural performer she joined the Marching Band as a color guard member and soon became captain. With over ten years of experience playing the violin she has also performed with her high school show choir and various church choirs. Being a natural leader she joined the military directly after high school. Once her military service became unfulfilling she decided not to renew her contract and go back to school instead. Since she was in Washington for several years due to the military she decided to stay and attend the University of Washington. Tameka is now a Dance and Communications major where she is able to do what she's always loved … dance.

Through elementary school and into middle school she performed theatrical dance at Whitman College.
