I have worked in NYC's public schools as a Dance Teaching Artist since 2007. I have taught students of varied abilities, backgrounds and ages in all five boroughs of NYC. I have taught in- and after-school programs with most of them culminating in final presentations to the public. I have taught Ballet and Modern Dance techniques, Be Well Movement (with anatomical approach), Choreography, Creative Movement, Dances from Around the World, Improvisation, Senior Dance, Storytelling through Movement and Yoga. Most of the classes have been in person and also, virtually.
Currently I also teach dance exercise and mindful movement in a correctional facility. Passionate about protecting nature I have taught many workshops in making art objects from recycled materials especially plastic. I have taught in museums, NYC Summer Streets and through many non-profit art organizations. These workshops involve knotting and crocheting.Â
