Andrea began her dance training at the age of 6, studying ballet, and discovered her love for tap and jazz at the age of 12. Since then, tap dance has become a very important part of her life, both as a dancer and teacher.
Throughout her training, Andrea has had the opportunity to study with many inspiring tap artists, including Brenda Bufalino, Margaret Morrison, Lisa LaTouche, Tony Waag, and her mentor, Toni Noblett. She has participated in Tap City in New York three times, where she had the privilege of training and being mentored by Brenda Bufalino, Felipe Galganni, and Chloe Arnold.
Andrea completed the Tap Teacher Training Program through the American Tap Dance Foundation and she is also certified in the Tap Dance Centre Syllabus under the mentorship of Kim Chalovich.
Her dance training has taken her internationally, including ballet studies in Cuba and at Nevada Ballet Theatre in Las Vegas, as well as continued training at Broadway Dance Center and Steps on Broadway in New York.
She loves sharing her knowledge and passion for tap through technique, rhythm, and choreography, while encouraging her students to develop confidence, creativity, and their own voice as dancers.
Andrea is very happy to be part of the Tap Dance Centre community and looks forward to sharing her love of tap with her students!
