We have a new practice studio!! Many thanks to the Clear Branch Volunteer Fire Department. We are excited about the future of our clogging team.
Hello to everyone! My name is Charla Lewis, and I am the founder/director/instructor of the Clear Branch Cloggers for Christ. I am 24 years old and a May 2007 Summa Cum Laude graduate of Mississippi College--Clinton-- with a B.S.Ed. degree (K-6; 7-12--Math and English). I am currently teaching 5th graders in the Hinds County School District. I established the CBCFC in January 2003 for the purpose of spreading God's word through dance. Located in Florence, MS, we enjoy performing at church events, charitable events, nursing homes, craft shows and festivals, community events, and restaurants. Hope you enjoy our site.

I have been dancing since I was 5 years old (jazz, ballet, baton, and clogging). I enjoy the discipline that comes with learning each new routine and the team spirit derived from learning, working, and dancing as a group.
