Art/Music/Dance Instructor
Teaches in: Sonoma County
Nicole is an artist, musician, and dancer, with a passion for nature and creativity! With a love of wildlife and the arts, as a kid she taught herself to draw the animals she adored, and found community and friendship through this expression. Learning to play the flute, she joined her middle school band and continued towards the Santa Rosa Symphony Youth Orchestra as Principal Flute for two years, later learning piano and ukulele. Inspired, she enrolled in her first dance class in college, and discovered a passion for movement in expression. She continues to train in multiple dance genres, including ballet, hip hop, ballroom smooth and standard as well as rhythm and latin styles as a top performer!
With an abundance of joy, Nicole loves to teach the freedom and confidence that comes with engaging with one’s own inner-artist! She believes every art form and expression is beautiful and welcome. And, although we may be shy at first, the love and skills learned through art are truly transformative, and can be discovered gently step by step along the way.
