Desiree has a passion for teaching and devotes much of her time training the dancers that you see in front of the camera.  Her real expertise is taking dancers and fine-tuning their technique, style, and movement to create a more refined, professional product. She is recognized in the field to be able to achieve these things by analyzing form and operative skills, producing efficiency in movement.  She speaks in an age appropriate terminology to all her students, which creates a strong bond between teacher/coach and student.  She has well over 18 years of experience in the field.

 

Desiree travels to more than 40 cities per year making appearances and teaching master classes all over the world.  She has since completed many tours with Tremaine while pursuing a professional dance career performing in many commercials and TV shows including Eerie Tales, Disney’s Videopolis, Miller's Outpost, Clothestime, 24/7 and Breakthrough.
