Episode 42: Bria Greenwood
My guest for episode 42 is Bria Greenwood! Originally from Madison, Mississippi, Bria is a professional dancer with Ad Deum Dance Company and a dance teacher. Bria describes herself as a lover of Jesus and someone who loves her family. She is the oldest of 5 siblings.
Bria received her dance training from the world’s first professional Christian ballet company, Ballet Magnificat, in Jackson, MS. She was in their School of the Arts, and then their professional Trainee Program.
We talk about how her time at Ballet Magnificat! developed her love of worship through movement and prepared her for the work she is doing now with Ad Deum Dance Company. Bria’s story reminds me that sometimes a closed door is really God’s provision and His way of guiding us to exactly where He wants us to be.
After her time with Ballet Magnificat, Bria moved to Houston, Texas, to join Ad Deum II Dance Company. Bria has such a beautiful heart for God, and you will hear that all throughout our conversation. I also love Bria’s heart for bringing joy to others through teaching and community outreach.
