About Jillian Greis

My teaching method involves introducing the technical elements of ballet slowly and strategically. This not only ensures my students are technically proficient, but works to inspire confidence by breaking down each step, and creating many attainable goals. In this way, children have frequent small successes as well as an in depth knoweldge of technique. The fun students have in ballet class should be fueled by their own successes, creating a cycle of hard work, mastery, and intrinsic reward that works to inspire further success, not only in ballet, but in any endeavor my students choose pursue.
