STORY:
After starting ballet as an adult dancer since 2013, I decided to take the Vaganova method teacher training from the Bolshoi Ballet Academy to further refine my skillset. Along my journey, I received a teaching opportunity to teach young figure skaters ballet and have been teaching for 4-years. I wanted to advance my knowledge in the fundamental basics of ballet. I have a certification of the Vagnova method from Pre-Ballet to Level 4 from the Bolshoi Ballet Academy. I am currently in the process of obtaining my Level 5 certification.

For starting as an adult ballet dancer, I found it difficult to learn ballet in adult drop-classes without prior knowledge of ballet. Now that I have taken teacher training I can share what I have learned to adults who want to learn proper ballet technique. Even as an adult dancer, it is possible to learn ballet and have clean technique.

I more deeply understand how to work with the limitations of the adult dancer, while continuing to execute each movement cleanly. Through my training, I learned the fundamental technique of each ballet movement and how to refine the steps. Now I have the opportunity to share to adult dancers who want to learn the proper ballet technique and posture. Through a hands on approach, I am passionate to instill the Vaganova method in my adult ballet classes. My classes focus on the technical movement of the step and help foster artistry.
