I am a professional dancer with a Manhattan-based company that tours the United States. I have been teaching ballet and tap for ten years, and graduated Cum Laude from Butler Universsity with a BA in Dance Pedagogy.
It is important in my class that students not only develop their technique, but experience the joy that comes when you are fully immersed in class. Each body is different, and a dancer's body is a body who dances. I teach my clients, no matter his or her age, to bring their personality into their movement.
My classroom is a place where we have celebrations of success, we work on improvement, and use positive approaches in order to achieve maximum results.
Whether you are looking to take lessons recreationally or are a serious student wishing to refine your technique, my class will help you reach your goals!

Jennifer is an amazing teacher! She provides amazing feedback and clearly knows her stuff. She is energetic and helps to bring a deep understanding of movement. I highly suggest Jennifer for privates!
I have trained alongside Jennifer as a dancer and have seen her in action in the studio not only as the student but as the teacher. Her compassion, diligence, and dedication to sharing her own love of ballet with her students is admirable and shines through. She is dedicated to not only providing safe and polished technique and artistry but also to learning from her students and seeking out ways to improve herself.
Speaking as a peer, Jennifer's teaching style is a great hybrid between a technique-driven, traditional curriculum and a wholesome appreciation for the joy and spirit that keeps dance as a universal language. Students not only gain an understanding of the vocabulary but a safe space to develop discipline, strength and confidence.
Jennifer is a fantastic teacher!!! As a professional ballerina/dancer she teaches Her advanced classes in a constructive and technical format, guiding students individually to become better dancers. Beginner and intermediate classes are Fun and technically formatted to motivate dancers to advance to the next level. This young lady is so amazing- I would recommend her classes for any age level!
