About
INSTRUCTOR OF DANCE FOUNDATIONS & ARTISTRY
I have trained under Classical and Russian ballet schools. In 2019, I attended the National Teacher Training Program at American Ballet Theatre in New York City. I am CPR and First-aid certified.
BUILDING FOUNDATIONS IN BALLET
I believe in training students in proper technique from day one – providing a solid foundation in ballet upon which to build in years to come. My lessons include exercises that gradually progress as the dancers grow stronger. These progressions build the necessary strength dancers need for ballet and equip their bodies with the “tools” they need to advance through the levels. Corrections are required to improve a dancer’s technique and are given in a positive way with my best intention to encourage and coach my students to their full potential. My lessons are structured with regard for traditional ballet etiquette. I strive to create an environment that is positively influential where dancers can learn and grow physically and emotionally.

Failing at a skill can be frustrating. I enjoy helping dancers find the solution to the technique issue, retraining them, and seeing them find joy again in what they love most - dancing!
After just 6-8 hours of private lessons with me, my dancer's (and their parents) see a significant improvement in their technique.
