Having so much exposure to many

different styles throughout her training,

Ashlyn has cultivated her own

approach to teaching combining the 

classicism of strict Vaganova technique

and the movement quality that 

American dancers possess.

 

She has trained her eye extremely well

to be able to fix a problem with

even a glance and a slight shift,

and she takes the time to educate

others to be able to visualize 

and fix those issues themselves.

​

She believes there is truly no

one way to give a correction to help

a dancer, she spends time with every

single student to make sure 

everyone has an understanding.

​

Besides being thoughtful with her

words and examples on proper 

placement and dancing freely,

she tries to instill the work ethic

that was once shown to her.

How to go above and beyond 

to reach whatever goals

someone may have...

How to work smart 

(not always hard)

is the key to success.
