Samantha Peterson, Director of Samantha's Studio of Dance, grew up in the small town of Susanville California. At the age of four, she began taking ballet classes and grew to love dance.
Samantha sees dance as a fun, enjoyable activity that teaches discipline and is an excellent form of exercise. Dance teaches cordination, poise, and grace. Ballet involves learning technical skills, theory, history, and musicality for all levels of dance from a beginning student to an advanced student. Samantha teaches using the Cecchetti graded method which is a balanced and analyzed training system.
Samantha has been trained in the Cecchetti method of ballet. She has also participated in seminars in places like BYU Provo and Santa Barbra. She is currently a member of the Cecchetti Council of America.
Samantha's objective is to introduce the art of dance to new students and help advanced students develope their skill and artistry. Through the art of ballet, Samantha hopes to instill strong bodies, self esteem, and confidence. But most important of all, to have fun and enjoy the journey to becoming the best dancer you can be.
