Dance for Gymnasts

  • Floor Routine Choreography

    When I competed gymnastics, floor was my absolute favorite. Nothing brought me more joy than combining dance with my favorite tumbling sequences. Due to my love of gymnastics combined with my dance expertise, I am uniquely qualified to create fun floor routines with a clear theme and story that will set your gymnasts apart. I would love to learn more about your gymnasts. I can be reached via email or you can use the below link to set up an appointment.

  • Private Lessons

    With the code of points being so focused on presentation and artistry, private dance focused lessons can be a way to take your routines to the next level. Private lessons can be geared toward perfecting routine choreography, reviewing carriage of the arm technique, elevating performance quality or any other element of dance technique. I offer private lessons virtually or at your gym/facility. Virtual lessons are $35 per 30 minutes or $60 per hour. In person price determined by location. You can use this link to schedule an appointment or you can email to request more information.

  • Group Lessons

    Group lessons can be a great way to enhance your gymnastics curriculum, whether it is a one time session, the occasional session or a weekly class. Dance technique enhances gymnasts presentation on all events through learning of the technique of the carriage of the arms, exercises to enhance stretching through the knees and toes to allow for the most finished line as well as enhancing strength, flexibility and body awareness. Virtual group lessons available at $55 per hour. On location lessons cost determined by location. Email for more information or to schedule.

  • Competition Prep-Mindfulness Session

    Whether your gymnasts struggle with confidence, remaining focused during a meet, staying positive if something goes wrong, goal setting or tend to focus on items outside of their control I have the workshop for you! All workshops are available in person or virtually.

My GYmnastics Story

I started gymnastics when I was 2 years old and immediately fell in love with the challenge and fun of the amazing sport. My childhood is filled with fond memories of using my dad’s new recliner to teach my favorite doll to do back tucks, using the couch to practice balancing in my handstands and flipping on my mat in the yard. My absolute favorite to compete was floor where I was viewed as such an elegant performer. As much as I loved the sport, after 12 years I became afraid. After a big fall, I turned my attention to dance where I was able to take all of the items I loved from performing floor without the (for me) more scary tricks. In dance I have found my true passion and abilities, though I never lost my love of the amazing sport of gymnastics. As an adult I participated in a few sessions of adult gymnastics at my local YMCA where I even learned how to do a new move, an arabian. I also became acrobatic arts certified and am so blessed to share my love of being up side down with all of my acro dancers. I also continue to watch every elite gymnastics meet on tv and am an avid NCAA gymnastics fan. Watching this new code of points and the importance of performance and dance technique, I realized that my dance expertise combined with my love of gymnastics puts me in an unique position to work with gymnasts to bring out their best performance in every meet. Focusing on the little details of fully stretched arms and legs, and performance quality can truly make the difference for any gymnast. I hope to be able to connect with you and your gymnasts soon!
