International Dance Instructor Joins Dancing Arts Center Summer Program

Dancing Arts Center is proud to welcome Nathalie Navert to its summer intensive dance program.

Nathalie is a graduate of the National Ballet School of Canada’s Teacher Training Program and is certified in Cecchetti Ballet Method and National Dances for pre-ballet to intermediate levels from the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing in London, England. The French Canadian native from Montreal has more than 25 years of experience teaching dancers of all levels. She also is the founder and artistic director of two successful schools in Quebec. In 2004, Navert moved to the United States and taught at the Ballet Workshop of New England and at the Massachusetts Youth Ballet in Hopkinton and Waltham, MA. She was the Assistant Director and Interim Director of the Community Dance Academy at Walnut Hill School for the Performing Arts in Natick, MA and is currently directing the dance division and teaching at the Hopkinton Center for the Arts.

“We are very excited to have Nathalie share her teaching experience with our young dancers during our programs this summer,” says DAC Co-Director Gregg Saulnier. “Our summer program students will greatly benefit from the different teaching styles and abilities our entire staff has to offer, and the skills, inspiration and excitement Nathalie brings will make this summer an even richer experience for all participants.”

Dancing Arts Center is currently accepting registration for its summer program. It promises to offer a wealth of experiences ranging from jazz and modern dance to ballet and choreography instruction. The programs, which include classes for ages 3-5, ages 5-8, and 9 and older, encompasses the American Ballet Theatre® National Training Curriculum, a breakthrough nine-level program combining high quality artistic training with the basics of dancer health and child development. The curriculum consists of a comprehensive set of age-appropriate, outcome-based guidelines to provide the highest quality ballet training to dance students of all ages and skill levels.

DAC’s summer program runs from June 29 through August 14. Students will have the exciting opportunity to perform in summer dance concerts on July 24 and August 14.
