Teacher Jordan
Favorite Ballet Storytime Story
My favorite story is The Firebird!
Favorite Ballet Step
I love teaching pas de chat, it's so fun to imagine we are moving like a cat!
Do you have a go-to animal for inspiration during Animal Dances?
My go-to animal is a bird. We can move like owls, or flutter like a tiny bird, or make giant sweeping movements like large elegant birds that fly through the sky!
Favorite Thing About Teaching at Tutu School
Tutu School is special to me because I know that without safe and fun spaces like Tutu School, I could not be the dancer and teacher that I am today! As a dancer with a disability, I love that Tutu School encourages young dancers to always try their very best while getting to experience the magic of dance through imaginative movement along with more traditional ballet stories. Ballet IS for every body and that includes bodies like mine that might need a little more time to learn a step, can’t always do a movement like a prima ballerina would, but who love ballet and will never stop finding the joy in dance!
