Sophia has had a passion for dance since she was a child. She started taking dance classes regularly in jazz starting at age 8. As a young adult she started training in hip-hop and contemporary dance. She also enjoyed social dancing and making up her own kind of movements. After graduating high school Sophia studied dance at Dutchess Community College for a year. In Fall 2022 Sophia decided to go back to college and moved to Potsdam to major in dance at SUNY Potsdam where she studied modern dance technique and dance choreography/composition.
Sophia has choreographed works for SUNY Potsdam and The American Dance Association. She has taught dance programs locally for children and teens through SUNY Potsdam Creative Arts Camp, and SLC Arts. She believes in dance education being accessible to all. Her contemporary dance classes tend to emphasize musicality, self-expression, release techniques, traveling sequences, and strength training. She is happy to be teaching contemporary dance at the Canton Yoga Loft!
At the Canton Yoga Loft, Sophia teaches various dance classes both for children and adults.
