HI!
I'm Suzanne, grew up in NYC and trained there with some of the greatest teachers in the country (mostly Chuck Kelly). I'm 40 years old, I have been teaching for 24 years. I moved to Florida in 1996 and opened my studio last fall. I teach ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical and acrobatics. I also judge dance competitions...I have judged for Headliners, Starquest and ADA.My daughter was born in 2000 and since then I really can only judge nationals in the summer, and its usually for ADA. Right now I am focusing on the 10 and unders while I build up my enrollment. We had 56 kids last year and this year, as of yesterday, we are up to 105! I don't really enjoy teaching the ages between 12 and 16, so I hired some terrific teachers to do that, plus I like to be home at a reasonable time to get my daughter fed, bathed and put to bed at a normal time.
Nice to meet you all!
Suzanne
