Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Beth has been dancing since she was 2 1⁄2 yrs old. Beth, the youngest of four, was the first to start dance lessons, soon to be followed by her older siblings. The family of four soon became well known for their love and devotion to the art of dance. Beth, the small fry prima ballerina, went on to compete regionally and nationally performing with The Horizons Dance Company. Growing up Beth studied at the Joffrey School of Ballet, Broadway Dance Center and Steps in New York City with some of the top teachers in the country. Beth auditioned and was accepted into the Dance program at Marymount Manhattan College. The rigorous program consisted of training everyday in ballet, modern, jazz, tap, and performance time.
Beth graduated Marymount with a degree in dance and a minor in education, along with a certification to teach dance to grades K-12. She has taught and directed the dance program at Poly Prep Day Camp, she also taught dance at Poly Prep’s after school program.
