"As Director of the School of Dance, the rewards are huge.  Not only are we a tight-knit group of dedicated and talented teachers, our students bring such joy and passion to the work, it brings everyone up!

Our dance program to instills a love of dance in the very young beginning dancer, all the way to our wonderful adult students. The program is such that those who are interested in going on to a career in dance, get good technique and a solid foundation.

It is my belief that students thrive in a warm, nurturing and encouraging atmosphere, whether they are just dancing for recreation or aspire to a professional career. In any case, our mission is to foster a love of dance, bring out a student's personal best while creating an appreciative dance audience."

About the School of Dance:
The Center's School of Dance helps individual students develop healthy, disciplined bodies, creative minds, and an in-depth knowledge and appreciate of dance as an art form. 

The curriculum appeals to a broad range of talents, ages and interests.  Dance workshops, an annual student showcase concert, the Fairmount Spanish Dancers and the Fairmount Dance Theatre encourage students to develop skills in choreography and performance.

For the serious student, the Fairmount Dance Programs seek to train students to be well-rounded and prepared to face the stiff expectations of the professional dance world.  Our program includes a ballet-based curriculum with additional emphasis in modern and jazz techniques, along with such vital and highly articulated dance forms such as Spanish Dance.  Versatility is vital to today’s dancers; therefore, Fairmount dancers are encouraged to embrace the many dance workshops offered.

The faculty at Fairmount create a nurturing, yet demanding, and concentrated environment where dancers are encouraged to explore their potential as technicians, artists and young adults.
