I have completed a three year training course at the Alexander Technique Center in Cambridge Massachusetts and am ATI certified.

I danced ballet professionally for over ten years. I danced with Miami City Ballet, The Alabama Ballet, and with Washington Ballet. Throughout my career i experienced mind-body techniques as an important and valuable measure for preventing injuries. I firmly believe that body awareness, and curiousity leads to an intelligent dancer, performer, and artist.  In additon to my ballet career I am also a graduate of New College of California with a degree in Arts and Social Change.

Teaching is my passion.  I  teach ballet to children and adults at ODC dance commons, MoBu Dance Studio, UC Berkeley and USF.  As I increase my knowledge for dance pedagogy, I have recently acquired a certification in the Vaganova method of levels 1-3 from the Pennsylvania Academy of Ballet.    Please click on the links above for further information.  I am also available for private ballet lessons and coaching.

Although I have danced the majority of my life, I still have a curiosity and joy for dance that continues to evolve and grow.  I am honored to share my knowledge and joy of movement with my students.   

I am currently teaching private Alexander Technique lessons in San Francisco.  Please contact me for further information.

I have designed this website to share my interest and passion for the Alexander Technique.

I live in San Francisco with my husband Michael and our two cats, Annie & Samson.
