into a deep connection with her dance partners. Her repertoire of experience in performing, studying or
teaching dance includes ballet, lyrical, Indian, salsa, bachata, fusion, zouk, Jazz, modern, dance/movement therapy and contact improv. This has helped her hone her sensory and intuitive abilities to more fluidly follow the lead of her dance partners.
