What dancers should know about my classes:
My classes are challenging to students of all levels. I am a very compassionate teacher
and I'm interested in knowing each student I have the privilege of instructing. I
want my students to know that YOU have the power to make your dreams a reality!
You are both, your toughest critic and your greatest ally. Hard work, being
open, keen listening and the ability to self reflect and correct will not only take you
far in dance, but in life as well!
