I believe learning to dance should be fun. I make sure my students are able to see their progress and feel good about themselves and their dancing. I teach with hearty doses of patience and encouragement, peppered with compliments. While I tailor lessons to the particular needs and goals of each student, I especially focus on developing connection skills and increasing body awareness. I enjoy teaching students of all dance levels--from those who think they have two left feet to intermediate dancers who want to take their dancing to the next level.

My favorite dances to teach are the swing dances: Lindy Hop, East Coast Swing, and West Coast Swing. In my free time, you will often find me out social dancing swing. My other interests span from visual art to foreign films, alternative health to the Feldenkrais metod, and from vintage jewelry to world travel. I also have a soft spot for guinea pigs.
