Cowles Center Teaching Artists are professional dancers, choreographers, and experienced educators who use innovative approaches to bring dance into classrooms through our Arts in Education programs.Teaching Artist Philosophy: “As a dance artist, entrepreneur and business professional with a range of diverse experiences, I enjoy drawing on different disciplines to create learning experiences. I view dance and dance- making as a vehicle for communication, internal reflection, and personal development. As someone who came to dance at 15, my personal journey is a real-life reflection of one of my foundational personal values; each person blossoms in their time when fed with the right nutrients. I also firmly believe that we should each pursue excellence, but never at someone else’s expense. My goal is for every student to leave a class feeling positive about what was learned, and curious to explore more."
