APPROACH TO CLASS:

My first approach to class is to see what is the objective or goal in that particular class. Whether it is a beginner level class drop in advanced class or enrollment there is always something a student is working towards. It can be to have fun, find your rhythm, or sharpen your choreography retention skills. No matter your goal I always like to make sure everyone is having fun and enjoying themselves in the process. I’m very energetic and silly because learning does not have to be stressful. Learning is more successful when it’s not stressful.
