Sarah has been teaching ballet, contemporary, and jazz in Southern California for the past eleven years with experience ranging from beginners to professionals and everything in between. Having trained in Cecchetti and Vaganova ballet techniques (under Richard and Laurie Hirschl, Debra Kaye, Gina Fiume, and Charles Maple), as well as Progressing Ballet Technique, much of her focus in the past few years has been on setting choreography for the Sunrise Ballet Corps de Ballet as Artistic Director. She also trains soloists to compete in the Youth American Grand Prix. However, while her first love is ballet, much of her professional career has been in Jazz, contemporary and modern dance. She was a member of the Watson Dance Ensemble participating in several new works. She was also a member of Inc. the Company. She continues to teach, coach, choreograph, and develop curriculums at competitive studios all over Southern California.
