Summary
I've been dancing since I was three with training in multiple styles of dance. For ballet I was mainly trained in Cecchetti as well as Russian. I also have training in Tap, Jazz, Fosse, Contemporary, Lyrical, Modern, Hip Hop, as well are ariel and silks. My training with multiple studios and companies has taught me the ability to learn and adjust to different instructors ways. Also adjusting to the different environments, dance studio like Artistry in Motion being more competition focused compared to Joffery School of Dance which is more production based. My experience with competition dance helped my ability with picking up choreography quickly and focusing on the details. I am a dedicated, problem solving, dancer who is a quick learner, team player, and leader when it is needed.
