Teaching

My approach to teaching dance is rooted in a comprehensive methodology that incorporates both technical training and imaginative exploration. As an educator, I believe it is essential for artists to critically engage with the principles of education to foster positive change in society. The goals I emphasize are a sense of inspiration within my students, encouraging them to uncover their own artistic potential, embrace diverse cultures, and actively participate as responsible members of a community.
