She also holds her Artistic Dance Educators Teacher Certification and is a qualified tap dance instructor, continually expanding her knowledge to provide the highest quality training for her students.
Beyond the studio, Caroline shared her passion for dance as an instructor at Queen’s University, where she taught dance while serving as Captain of the University’s Performance Dance Team. During her time there, several of her choreographic works were selected for university showcases. Her own dance achievements include being named Senior Overall Dancer at her home studio in 2014 and receiving the Proficiency Excellence in Dance Award the following year.
Alongside her career in dance, Caroline is an Ontario Certified Teacher (OCT) and works as an elementary school educator.
