Sarita is a professional dancer and dance teacher based in NYC. She is specialized in Contemporary Dance, Modern Dance (Graham technique), Ballet and Argentine Tango. The class will be designed on you individually, depending on what technique or goal you want to focus. You will improve the understanding of your body and physical possibilities as well as have fun with movement sequences at the end of each class.

My specialty is teaching tap as a musical instrument. For me, the movement serves the sound rather than a visual effect. No matter if you're a beginning, intermediate or advanced student, you will discover the potential of the human body to help internalize musical concepts such as phrasing, form, improvisation, and self-expression, as well as gain organic access to complex musical structures. Whether your focus is on building tap dance skills, seeking to connect body and mind in a profound and musical way, or are a musician who wants to become more connected and physically involved with the groove within - you are in the right place with me. The tap steps are merely tools to access your unique voice. My tap lessons combine technique, improvisation, and combinations with mindfulness, breathing, and body awareness exercises. Find the groove that is within you!
