combines her love of dance with her fondness for children making each fun-filled class a special experience for her young students. Her passion and commitment to teaching has carried over to our program designed to develop an enthusiasm for dance and a feeling of confidence and pride. She began her training at the Marcia Hyland Dance Center when she was three years old, studying under Gerry Barney, Linda Polvere and Nicole Angelastro, and now is a member of our Dance Company and teaching staff.
Sam’s impressive performance experience includes eight years on the Philadelphia Jr. Soulmates Dance Team and three years on the Platinum All Stars Dance Team, with performances at Sixers/Globetrotters/Flyers/Temple games, and New York’s Madison Square Garden appearances. She was a varsity cheerleader at Lenape High School, and presently leads a dance elective at the Mt. Laurel Camp, and directs the camp’s talent shows.
With her versatility and strong background in dance, Sam is able to appeal to the imagination in each aspiring little dancer, taking them beyond their own expectations!
