Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Dance from Hunter College of City University of New York
I'm a trained dance educator with a masters degree from NYU. I'm offering this class because I love ballet, and I love to see students grow in this art. I am also still a student of this technique so I know what it is to approach this on a pedagogical level, while not being too far removed from the experience of a student of the technique. I also can't wait for Christmas to get here already!!!
