Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I will have a conversation with you about what your needs are. Do you want a lesson? Do you want choreography? For what purpose? A performance? Just for yourself? What kind of dance do you want to learn or practice? Are you an advanced dancer or an absolute beginner? How old are you? Where do you live? From there I can have a better idea of how to guide you through the process.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My formal training in ballet and contemporary dance spans for over 19 years, including a professional career with three separate companies over the course of four years.
Most recently, I have been working successfully as a freelance dancer, choreographer, and instructor for over five years in the San Francisco Bay Area and I couldn't be happier.
