BACKGROUND

​

At age four, my first dance teacher was a former Rockette. I studied dance at the Les Petites Ballet School and Shore Ballet School in New Jersey, performed with their dance companies and trained at the Joffrey Ballet School in Manhattan. At Brookdale College, The College of New Jersey and Franklin Pierce University, I studied dance, choreography and dance instruction.

INSTRUCTION

My first professional teaching opportunity was at a New Jersey dance school with a diverse and accomplished staff, where my students won awards in competition. That was followed by directing a YMCA dance program. After teaching a year at a local dance school in New Hampshire, I formed the Earth Dancer School and the Free Spirits Dance Company. I also taught dance at the B.F. Brown Arts Vision School in Fitchburg, MA.
