Karen has been teaching dance or coaching Acro for 20+ years.  She does love teaching in the dance and Acro world, and it’s been her passion for a long long time! She continues to keep up with the Acro and dance trends by doing teacher master classes and conventions, and taking training classes for spotting and different Acro techniques. She has been in the competitive dance world now for about 15yrs, and knows what judges look for and expects when students perform Acro tricks in their dances. Especially since tumbling on a dance stage is so much different than doing tumbling for gymnastics meets or classes.   She is so honored to be teaching here at the OCD!
