Caitlin Gardner

My name is Caitlin and I am from Overland Park, Kansas. Although this is my first year at TDA, I’ve been teaching for about 4 years. Outside of TDA, I am a Junior Nursing student at Midland University and on the dance team. I’ve been dancing for 17 years and competing for 8 years. My teaching style is definitely energetic and inclusive. I encourage my students to cheer each other on and be supportive to create a comfortable environment for dancing. I also prefer to provide my students with options on how the class should go, for example, I’ll ask if they would like to learn a combo first then across the floor or cardio followed by tricks and vise versa. This allows each dancer to feel like they’re in control of their learning experience.
