Modern III

Karla might seem a bit crazy at first. She yells apparently random words or phrases during exercises, and she tells anecdotes of questionable relation to the class. However, she really cares for her students. If you take this class, your technique will improve. She often spends too much time on exercises in the center, and this leaves little time for combinations at the end. This serves to help with technique, so take this class if you want to improve.

Karla is an amazing teacher! Dance teachers are often either too laid back, offering little feed back to their students or they are extremely harsh, making it difficult for the students to see past their negative comments, but Karla balances these two extremes very well. She is firm in her teaching and constantly stresses the importance of a strong technique, but she also knows when to encourage her students and let them know how much they are improving. I strongly recommend that you take a class with Karla, you will definitely leave her class as a stronger dancer.
