Jennifer's life-long love affair with dance began at the age of four when she felt her ballet teacher's pointe shoe for the first time. For the next 12 years she competed throughout BC in modern, lyrical, tap, jazz, stage and studied RAD ballet for over 10 years. After graduating from high school, she decided to explore her other creative side, acting & theatre, and appeared in various commercials throughout Canada and the US. After traveling abroad, Jennifer returned to Vancouver and received her diploma in business marketing from BCIT and eventually returned to her first love, ballet, to complete her Certificate In Ballet Teaching Studies with the Royal Academy of Dance. She has trained up to Advanced 2 level and received distinction on her Advanced 1 Ballet exam.

With a strong desire to better understand the body and how it can be conditioned for ballet, Jennifer began practicing Pilates and has since become a Certified Pilates instructor throughout Vancouver. She trained under Marta Hernandez with the PhysicalMind Institute of Canada as well as Emmie Li to receive her Pilates Certification. Jennifer teaches Pilates to all ages and disciplines including students at various dance schools. She is also an instructor with Canada's very first "barre style" workout, The Dailey Method, which combines the disciplines of ballet barre work, yoga and pilates. Her passion always remains in Ballet with the goal of developing her students into strong, balanced dancers.
