How You Can Work Together

“I have worked extensively at the Boston Ballet teaching dance to students who have a passion for dance but may lack the financial means to pursue it through the Citydance and ECI on Location programs. I have also taught dance to students with Autism and Down syndrome as part of the Adaptive dance program. I also love teaching acting to young students passionate about learning more about their voice and have done so at Newton South High School, Solomon Schechter Day School and many, many more.”
