Teaching
and
Facilitation
The same values of PLAY, OWNERSHIP & CELEBRATE still apply to my facilitating practice.
​
In classes, I focus on creative exploration, autonomy, and connection. I have experience teaching contemporary, hip-hop, and contemporary fusion to little people, young adults and older adults from different ranges of backgrounds, experiences and needs all with one purpose; to dance/move in a fun supportive environment.
I’ve personally seen how dance and community can transform someone, movement was there for me in my time of need and it also created a home for me. It is my main drive to share that with others, to create a home or a space where empathy, care and exploration thrive.
