Dance Department
Kristin currently teaches hip-hop to both dance majors and
non-majors. She really enjoys introducing a new style to the
dance department and strives to maintain it’s presence
within the program for all dancers to experience.
Kristin is a graduate from Cal State Long Beach. She
received a BA degree in Interpersonal and Organizational
Communications. Though she did not major in dance, Kristin
took every dance class with her spare units and even
assisted her jazz professor, Andy Vaca. When graduation
came, she left with an interest in communications and a
passion for dance. Thus, she pursued performance,
choreography and teaching. A few years later, she was
contacted by her former jazz professor and now current
Assistant Chair and was offered a position to teach as a part-
time faculty member. Kristin has been honored to be a part
of such a diverse and talented group of professors. She is
humbled everyday teaching along side of her mentors.

6. JAPANESE PRO DANCE WORKSHOPS
Kristin was fortunate to fulfill one of her dreams and travel to Japan. For two consecutive summers she held pro
dance team workshops, make-up and fitness seminars and junior dance team clinics. It was such a delightful
experience introducing the American-style sports entertainment to the Japanese dancers. Kristin traveled to
Tokyo, Niigata, Kiyosato, Chiba, Kamagawa, Yokohama and other cities to reach out to dancers and give them
the opportunity to learn from an American NBA dancer. For most Japanese cheerleaders and dancers, it is a
dream to travel to the U.S. and dance professionally on a team. Kristin can only hope that she made it more of a
tangible goal for them.
