Jennifer Grace joined the Colorado Ballet and began teaching at a local studio in Evergreen in 2020. She is thankful for the relationships she has built with her students and the welcome she has received with Colorado Ballet, both of which have really made a difference in her life and career. For the second year in a row she is excited to expand her teaching reach into the Denver Metro area with a collaboration with Colorado Dance Arts in Lakewood, Colorado.

Jennifer is thrilled to share the experience that comes with more than a decade of being a professional Ballerina with her local community. She hopes to deepen the level of instruction she can provide through a summer intensive focused on improving her students’ skills. Jennifer knows the value that learning from a professional ballerina offers for the upcoming ballet dancer, and wants to bring the opportunity to her new home base.

Jennifer’s intent for this intensive is to focus on building a strong core technique that can be applied within any style. She equips each student with the tools they will need, both in a professional setting  and out, to keep themselves in peak condition mentally and physically. Her classes are a place where mistakes are welcome and encouraged so that dancers can learn how to handle moments that don’t go entirely to plan in a safe and caring environment.

The curriculum includes a focus on technique, conditioning, variations, and contemporary depending on level. Don’t miss this chance to learn from a true professional, currently principal dancer with the Colorado Ballet!
