wrapping up National Eating Disorder Awareness Week with a little graphic… ⭐️Unless you are a Registered Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist, you shouldn’t be giving nutrition advice to your students. ⭐️If they ask you questions regarding foods and/or dieting, point them in the direction of a qualified professional who specializes in dancer nutrition like tothepointenutrition who provides tons of FREE resources for dancers and teachers alike to educate themselves. ⭐️Create a safe environment for your students to thrive in and feel supported

One of my greatest joys of 2023 was starting an Adult Beginner Ballet class centerstage76 !!! So grateful for all of these incredible ladies 💕 Registration is now open for our next 10 week session of classes which begins on Sunday, January 14th! (you can find the link in my story highlights) I would love to meet more of you at the barre! 🩰✨💕 - 🩰 Sundays 11:00am-12:00pm 🩰 No dance experience required

Thank you so much to the beautiful Julie Caprio for giving me the opportunity to return to the stage alongside her wonderful dancers! It was such a triumph of a day and I am so proud to have shared the stage with such a supportive and kind cast ♥️ I want to express my deepest gratitude to all who came to support me and the show, wished me merde in spirit, or even thought of me as it was my first time onstage since my eating disorder resulted in me needing to step away from professional dancing. While that still continues to be a challenge I face everyday, I am just so beyond grateful to have had the chance to dance onstage and feel the magic again ♥️ ✨🩰 I really am truly blessed to have connected with such incredible souls who believe in me along my journey and never want to take that for granted! Of course, I wouldn’t have been able to have gotten to the stage without the love and support from my mother who has always been by my side! Wishing everyone a happy holiday season!

There’s still some time to register for my first Adult Beginner Ballet Fall Session!!! (no previous dancing experience required) I would be 💫Enchanted 💫to see you at the barre-starting this Sunday! See my previous post for more information or the highlight on my story 💜✨

I’m very excited to announce that I’ll be teaching Beginner Ballet for Adults beginning October 1st at centerstage76 ! I am ready to share my passion for ballet with all of you! Use the link in my story highlights to register and I look forward to meeting everyone in the studio! 📸: noelvphoto

This week is Eating Disorders Awareness Week, which obviously is very close to my everyday life as someone in recovery. I hope that my struggles and what I continue to learn everyday can help to educate and inspire others to keep pushing forward 💚 #edaw #edaw2023 #edrecovery #edawareness #neda
