Senior Year Headshot - Susie Kaufman

My name is Sarah, and I am a Senior at Point Park University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I am training to be a dance teacher, and hope to one day own my own studio. I am most interested in understanding the psychological and physiological aspects, and how they interact, when teaching movement to a developing child. I have taught dance for 3 years, mostly to beginning and intermediate levels in tap, jazz, ballet, modern, and contemporary. I also was an assistant coach to a gymnastics squad for a short period, which I am interested in learning more about.
