Testimonials

"Articulate, inspiring teaching. Beyond breaking down technic to great details she transferred spirit of dance with such passion. The way she directed us to find our individual voice and confidence in movement was different to any dance class I've taken before. The way she quickly assessed the class level and in a flash composed a great class, fantastic!"
