My Project

My students are passionate, dedicated, and eager to grow as dancers. As members of the EnCHARGE Dance Team, they work tirelessly to develop their technique, strength, and artistry. However, mastering flexibility and perfecting turns require the right tools to help them progress safely and effectively.

The stretching yoga belts will assist dancers in deepening their flexibility and safely extending their range of motion, essential for leaps, extensions, and overall movement quality.

The turning boards will provide critical support in developing stronger balance, control, and precision in their pirouettes and turns.

Our goal is to enhance their technical skills, build their confidence, and create an environment where every dancer has the tools they need to succeed. My students are special because they are resilient, determined, and passionate about their craft. Many of them have never had access to structured dance training, yet they show up with enthusiasm and a willingness to learn. These resources will help them reach their full potential, unlocking new levels of skill and artistry.
