Review for San Diego Dance Theatre, San Diego, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Jean Isaacs and Sand Diego Dance Theater have been very influential on my life as a dancer/choreographer. I consider Jean my first dance teacher; her teachings deeply informed my dancing and choreography, which have in turn informed almost all other aspects of my life.

San Diego Dance Theater was one of the first producers of my solo projects through their summer workshops. These early opportunities allowed me to discover my voice as a choreographer and solo performer.

Currently, I am studying architecture, another way to look at form and movement through space. I also still perform. Dance my have been an unusual way to arrive at architecture, but I think it was a good one.

Jean's enthusiasm in the studio is exciting to see, as is her commitment to her art; it is this enthusiasm and commitment which led me into the deepness of dance, which altered the direction of my life.

many thanks to Jean Isaacs and San Diego Dance Theater!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

many ways, through refined technique to many performance opportunities as a young and emerging artist.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

make it easier for them to export their model to other cities. San Diego Dance Theater gives emerging performers and choreographers so many wonderful opportunities.

Role:  Professional with expertise in this field & I studied here.
