MORE CLASSES
JAZZ DANCE
My Jazz Classes focus on smooth and stylized movement borrowed from multi-cultral dance forms and ballet, incorporating isolations, contractions, footwork, multiple levels, jumps, turns and floor work, using full range of movement set to jazz, soul and rhythm and blues music. I'm heavily influenced by Jack Cole, Luigi and Matt Mattox.
MUSICAL THEATRE DANCE
The Musical Theatre Classes I teach incorporate elements from my jazz, ballet and choreography classes, plus exploring acting, gestures, drama and story. I feel exposure to famous musical theatre choreographers and their work to be very important for the students, as well as using musical theatre music during warm-up, floor exercises and choreography.
CHARACTER DANCE
My Character Dance Classes are structured similarly to a regular ballet technique class with barre and center exercises that allow for greater freedom in the torso and epaulement, and highly stylized movement with a focus on rhythm and syncopation.
​
MULTI-CULTURAL FOLK DANCE
Learning cultural dances involves more than performing steps, it provides participants the opportunity to form a better understanding of customs and traditions of people from other countries. My Multi-cultural Folk Dance Classes are geared toward non-dancers but can be equally enjoyed by any ardent professional who has an interest in adventure. Cultures explored include: Hawaiian, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, German, Hungarian and Ghana.
