Teacher Sofia
Favorite Ballet Storytime Story
My favorite ballet story from our curriculum is Coppélia. I have fond memories of performing in it as a child with the English Youth Ballet—the excitement of the narrative and the enchanting characters always brings a smile to my face.
Favorite Ballet Step
A jeté (leap) is such a fun and exciting step to teach young dancers! As they get more confident, they start to feel that magical moment of floating in the air—almost like flying. Watching little ones work on jumping higher and stretching their legs longer is so special, and their joy when they finally get it is priceless!
Do you have a go-to animal for inspiration during Animal Dances?
The penguin is my go-to animal for inspiration during animal dances! It’s such a happy little creature, and I love watching the students shuffle around the floor, waddling with big smiles.
Favorite Thing About Teaching at Tutu School
Tutu School is such a special place because it introduces children to ballet in the most magical way. With all the props, colors, and storytelling, it feels like stepping into a fairytale. I love sharing my passion for ballet with my students and watching their excitement grow as they twirl, leap, and discover the joy of dance. It’s truly beautiful to see their love for ballet blossom!
