Meet our Dance Director – Jennie

jennBeckerMeet Our Dance Director: Jennie Becker

Jennie trained for many years in ballet, jazz, modern, tap, musical theater and pointe in the Twin Cities. There she learned to have a love for all dance and furthered her training in ballroom, latin and swing dancing. After graduating from Luther College Jennie moved to Chicago to continue her training and begin her professional dance career. In Chicago she has been fortunate to work with Kyle Vincent Terry’s dance/theater company TheMassive, Kathryn Burrow’s Narrative Dance Company The Monocle Eclectic and Chloe Jensen’s company Aerial Dance Chicago and is currently dancing for the Twin Cities dance Company Alternative Motion Project (AMP).

At the studio Jennie teaches several different classes and age groups as well as works with all dance instructors to ensure continuity between all teachers and classes. Jennie also teaches workshops as well as choreographs studio dance numbers for the DTMN recitals helps with cleaning baton dances for the national team. Jennie is always available for any questions or concerns regarding the dance program at DTMN and looks forward to seeing everyone in class!

Next week, Jennie will be sharing some of her tips for dancing professionally for all of our young ballerinas that aspire to dance on the big stage!
