TEACHING
NOW BOOKING FOR MASTERCLASSES, WORKSHOPS, AND INTENSIVES
With instruction experience from recreational and competitive dance studios and university settings to professional companies, there is a place for everyone in one of my classes. As a testament to my own uncommon dance journey, I believe in an individualized and personal approach to dance education. My classes are judgement free, provide a balanced framework between exploration and replication, and usually get a tad bit silly.
