Teaching

I love to teach a ballet class that involves building the muscles, coordinating arms for port de bras, testing rhythmic patterns as well as other tools in order to challenge and strengthen a dancer so that they perform at their highest potential. Having grown up learning the Chechetti method (achieving my advanced exam), studying the Vaganova Method at The Australian Ballet School for four years, and being exposed to the Balanchine style since coming to the United States-I consistently incorporate everything I have learned into my classes. When I teach Contemporary/Modern, I include aspects of the Graham and Horton technique and finish off with a routine to apply everything we have learned. I can also teach Jazz, Pas De Deux, Hip Hop and Tap. Teaching is one of my passions as I love inspiring up and coming dancers.
