뮤지컬 극장 댄스 기술 및 오디션 준비

Private sessions are tailored to the individual student! Whether your learner wants one-on-one instruction to get the individualized attention he/she needs to reach their goals, or whether they need help prepping for an upcoming audition, this class can be tailored to suit their needs. Learners will be guided through a comprehensive warmup involving light cardio, stretching, and technique work to ensure they are ready to dance safely and freely. 


Depending on each dancer's needs, they will then be led through either technical instruction or choreography. Students will receive feedback throughout the entirety of the class and are welcome to interact throughout so that they communicate their questions and needs clearly. I am here to help them whether they want to land that pirouette, memorize choreography better, or increase their performance confidence.

Example topics we can focus on depending on your student's needs:

1. Prepare for a specific audition such as a BFA Musical Theatre or Acting audition. This would include assistance with choosing and preparing material (16 bar cuts, monologues, dance solo piece) and/or dance technique training to prepare for an in-person dance call. 
2. Introduction to dance: for the actor who hasn't taken a dance class before, a private session like this allows the student to learn the basic steps and terminology to get them started and feel more confident in show choir, the school musical, the community theater audition, or their upcoming BFA audition. 
3. Turns! Already have dance experience? Need help with your pirouettes? I help students gain confidence with their turns. We will work on exercises to strengthen the muscles needed to turn properly and safely and incorporate turning into short combinations to try the turns within choreography. 
4. Flexibility. Flexibility can be tough and everyone's body is different! We will work together to find what works for each student's needs and goals. This would include elements of yoga, static stretching, and dynamic stretching. 

This class can be booked over and over again as the student progresses. I want to help your student along their dance journey! 

Because of the nature of dance and theater classes, my teaching style is a blend of "demonstrator" and "facilitator". I actively coach each student and demonstrate everything that I want that student to try. I then allow each student the chance to try each move with me and alone so that I can watch and give feedback. It's important for students to have both a visual representation and the opportunity to try each move (such as a turn) several times. I am a very active and energetic teacher and strive to get the most out of every private session that we can.
