Contemporary Ballet Choreography Workshop - 4-Day Camp (Beg/Int)

Ballet Teacher | Cultivating Excellence in Ballet Education and Beyond!

❤️ I'm a new teacher here on Outschool (but have been teaching since 2016). My teaching style is watch me, we try, you try. I encourage my students to ask questions when they need more clarity on the current topic. I like to keep my class sizes small (4-6 students) and camps to no more than 10 students. Each student receives the attention they deserve. I recommend viewing my classes on a device with a large screen so you can see your teacher clearly. Since I'm still new, if you see a class you like but the time isn't right, please reach out to me with your requests. I am still navigating my schedule to see what works best for my students adn following. I can't wait to see you in my next class!
