    About Veronica J.

    (23)
    Hi! Ms. V here. I'm a professional dancer with a BFA in dance, and I've been teaching in studios across the NYC and New Jersey areas for 5 years, plus 4 years previously in Charleston, SC. My favorite part about teaching is watching students achieve the goals that we've set together, and the growth that happens along the way. When I teach, I love getting to know my students--what type of learning works best for them, what kind of energy they're most responsive to, and what kind of music really gets them moving! I've taught ballet, tap, jazz, contemporary/modern, contemporary improv, conditioning & stretch, and gymnastics to all levels, mostly to youth. When I'm not dancing, I love to journal, spend time outdoors, and make a homecooked meal. I'm excited to get moving with you!
