Julie joins Dance Connection this year with a long history in dance. She grew up a dancer competing both Regionally and Nationally and went on to college to pursue her passion in dance. Julie attended University of the Arts in Philadelphia where she found a love for ballet. She then transferred and later graduated with her Bachelor in Fine Arts (BFA) in Dance Studies from LIU CW Post. During and post college, Julie performed all throughout Philadelphia theatres and even at Lincoln Center in NYC.  It was during college Julie felt she learned so much that she began teaching. She taught all ages from toddler through high school in all styles. Julie took a quick break from teaching as she started a family and is now a mother of three children, one girl and two boys. Julie is excited to get back to her true passion of teaching dance.
