| Teachers: I am very proud of the teachers who teach at the Creative Groove Studio. I have chosen teachers not only for the caliber of their teaching experience but also for their instinctive gift of interacting with children. It's something that cannot be taught and I'm excited to have found such a wonderful team of teachers. I've chosen them both from my teaching perspective and my perspective as a parent. Alejandra Sapirstein: Alejandra teaches our Bailemos-Let's Dance classes and our Backyard Boogie class. She is an incredibly popular teacher and much-loved by the children she teaches. Born in Chile, Alejandra is a dance teacher, choreographer and professional dancer. Her resume includes countless works, studies and festivals in a variety of countries, including Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, France, the United States, as well as her native Chile. She has produced and directed musicals and choreographies for numerous organizations. Alejandra teaches dance to elementary and middle school children at Hoboken Charter School. Karyn Kuhl: Karyn is a singer/ songwriter/ guitarist who performs in many NYC venues. She has been teaching her program "Music Time" in Hoboken for a number of years now. Karyn taught for many years at Echo of Art and, more recently, at the Monroe Movement Center. She teaches Groovy Baby for babies (0-12 months), Toddlers Rock (1-3 year olds) and Drumming 'n' Strumming (2-4 year olds). Karyn has a wonderfully gentle energy with children of this age and, as a result, the children adore her! She is a fantastic person to introduce children to the wonderful world of music. After taking her class, my son would sing "We Will Rock You" while I changed his diaper. Kristin Stokes- Has been performing since age 8 and teaching since age 15. From college bound teens to giggling tots; she’s taught an array of classes to budding creative minds. Some of her teaching credits include; acting for beginners (8- 12), college audition prep, high school theater department choreographer, musical theater acting couch, puppeteer and story teller for toddlers, and director of Star Struck Theatre’s summer musical theater camp (7-13). She is very happy to be able to extend her love of children and teaching to the youths at Creative Groove. Kristin believes children are very special, and enjoys seeing them grow each day with their creativity and curiosity. Kristin is also an Equity actress who continues to perform coast to coast and is a graduate of the Pacific Conservatory of the Performing Arts. I discovered Kristin when she entertained and taught a group of 20 seven year olds at an "Annie" party we hosted and I was blown away by her energy and her rapport with the children. I'm very excited to have her join the teaching staff at Creative Groove Studio. |
