What You Need To Know

I specialized in Vaganova Ballet, but have training in and experience teaching Jazz, Tap, Musical Theatre, Modern, Partner Work, Strength & Flexibility, Leaps & Turns, and Choreography.
-
I can teach all ages from 4 to seniors, but specialize in 10 - 18 year olds where I can instill strong technique.
-
I began my training at age 9, studying ballet, jazz, tap, and musical theatre under Marcus Alford, former company member of the Gus Giordano company.
I furthered my training at Birmingham Southern College, pursuing a B.A. in Dance. In addition to all dance styles, I studied dance physiology and pedagogy, as well as dance history, all of which I incorporate in my classes.With my professional experience centered around cruise ships and theatre, I promote acting, performance, and storytelling to be of equal significance to technique.

I have taught in a variety of dance and performing arts studios throughout northern Georgia and the Cincinnati/Kentucky area.
