How would you describe your movement style and what can dancers expect from your class at BAC?
"I aim to be precise and give intention to every movement. I’m very curious about movement, and that’s something I want to encourage in my classes as well. Dancers can expect a physical warm-up, technical exercises such as tendus, floor work, and choreography. I like to explore different movement qualities and give dancers the space to be curious about how they move, rather than simply reproducing steps."
