My passion is ballet and I'm so happy to have a ballet blog where I can share my thoughts with other dancers and teachers of dance. I have an MFA in dance from the University of Arizona, 1992 and a BS in ballet from Indiana University, 1988. I also studied dance at Butler University for two years as a high school student. I danced professionally in Arizona and Kentucky, and taught ballet at Indiana University, University of Arizona, University of Kentucky, and Eastern Kentucky University, as well as the School of Lexington Ballet, School for Creative and Performing Arts in Lexington, KY, and Town and Village School of Dance in Paris, KY.
