✨MISS CHRISTINE (she/her) ✨

A little bit about Miss Christine 🩰
I danced competitively in my youth and my favourite dance style has always been ballet. I danced professionally with the Buffalo City Ballet Company in my late teens and went on to study Theatre-Dance at TMU. I am an ABT certified ballet instructor and the director of our three studios, DDA, EDA and SDA.
