This website
is designed to serve the information needs for my students
and for those interested in learning more about dance education
and mind-body practice.
I have been teaching
dance for over 20 years now. I started teaching ballroom dance
professionally back in 1984. Before that I taught ballet,
jazz, modern and other types of theatrical dance. In 1999,
I began teaching workshops in mind-body practice. This was
mainly due to my personal experience with healing the body,
and it just seemed like the logical next step in my work.
I think
the most satisfying thing about my work is that there's always
something new and different to explore. Every student is different,
every class is different, every subject is different; and
yet, it's all about the same thing: discovering
a more meaningful version of who we are.
I hope you find
this website helpful. Certainly, I hope to have you in a class
of mine someday.
The lessons we learn about ourselves through the experience of
becoming dancers will apply to all areas of our lives. Likewise,
our life lessons can be expressed through dance. Becoming
a dancer is all about transformation. It is a call to empowerment."
