Welcome to the Brea Olinda High School Dance Department! Our program offers Dance 1, Dance 2, Dance 3, and Dance Production, providing opportunities for dancers of all levels to grow, challenge themselves, and share their passion for dance. Whether you are new to dance or an experienced performer, there is a place for you to learn, create, and shine!
Dance Production team is the advanced performing group at BOHS. Dancers need to audition in April to be a part of Dance Production. They must have extensive dance knowledge and advanced technique in jazz, modern, hiphop, and contemporary styles, etc.
These levels are encouraged for intermediate/advanced dancers who have a few years of dance experience or have taken Dance 1 and/or Dance 2 at BOHS. Dancers participate in expanding their knowledge and execution of technique in all styles of dance.
This level is encouraged for incoming freshman or beginning dancers. Dancers will learn technique in all areas of dance including: jazz, ballet, contemporary, modern, improvisation, musical theater and hip hop.
This is my fifteenth year as the Brea Olinda High School Dance Director. I have a Bachelors of Arts in Dance degree from Chapman University, Teaching Credential in Physical Euducation from Cal State Fullerton, and Master in Education with an emphasis in Teaching & Learning from Brandman University. I have 15 years of professional dance experience from performing in various shows and parades at the Disneyland Resort.
