>Choreographer & 2 Assistants NEEDED. (Dancers too) >Dear Dreamland Entertainment

I am sorry but I found your job request late.  However I am very interested, if you have not found a choreographer yet please contact me.  Choreography is my passion but I am a great performer as well.

I am a graduate from York University in Canada with a BFA in dance.  I have extensively studied choreography, ballet and modern technique, pilates, human anatomy, kinesiology, injury prevention, movement analysis, voice and speech and much more.....If interested please contact me.
