Teacher Mackenzie
Favorite Ballet Storytime Story
The Nutcracker is my favorite ballet story ever! I love how magical it is with all of the different characters (the Sugar Plum Fairy is my favorite).
Favorite Ballet Step
My favorite step to teach and perform is Rond De Jambe! It's so graceful and flowy, which is my favorite way to dance.
Do you have a go-to animal for inspiration during Animal Dances?
My go-to animal for inspiration during animal dances is a dinosaur. I find that my kids love to stomp around and make dinosaur noises. It's a very good way to get them fully engaged in class.
Favorite Thing About Teaching at Tutu School
Introducing children to the magic of ballet at such a young age is so special. Ballet has been a part of my life since I was only a couple years old, and I can't wait to share that magic with many more children to come!
