Miss Stephanie is very excited to be teaching at SBDC for her 5th year.
She has been dancing with Stoney Brook Dance Company for the past 16 years studying Ballet, Tap, Jazz and Pointe. She is the first of our own students to complete the teacher's assistant program.  Miss Stephanie attended the 3-year A.D.A.P.T. Jazz & Tap Teacher's Training Program, and is a certified A.D.A.P.T. Jazz & Tap Teacher.  She is also actively training in Al Gilbert Tap, as she is  planning on completing the Al Gilbert Tap Examination Syllabus this year. Miss Stephanie successfully entered her own students into Al Gilbert Tap exams, and A.D.A.P.T. Jazz and Tap exams. She started assisting at SBDC at the age of 12, and has been teaching for Stoney Brook Dance Company since 2004. Miss Stephanie is excited to be teaching at SBDC again this year, and is looking forward to the 2008-2009 dance season!
