Dianne Adkins-Forte


“I've had years of professional dance experience performing with companies such as D'Joule African, Forces of Nature Dance Theatre and Harambee Dance and Drum to name a few.  In 2020, I delved into the world of dance and holistic fitness and became certified in ASA! Fitness.  As a beacon for women searching for the answer to self-love, empowerment and physical wellness, it is my passion to motivate and uplift women into their highest selves.  I take pride in being a motivational wellness guide who is not afraid to step outside of the box in order to bring women towards standing in the aura of their authentic selves.” 

“In 2022, I started Femme Forte' DAF.  This started with just a few women getting together to commit to physical health and increasing flexibility.  Little did they know that it would grow into the thriving community of not only body transforming but mindset shifting platform it is today.  Passion and enthusiasm go hand in hand with everything I do.   I am now a Level 2 certified ASA! Fitness instructor.  I am also certified in stretch instruction, reflexology and S.T.E.A.M., which stands for Soul Transforming Energy and Movement.  I am proud to bring  people together in person and virtually from all over the country through my weekly classes.  I would love the opportunity to teach ASA! Fitness at Cumbe Center for African and Diaspora Dance.”
