Our Team of Dance Instructors

Laura Strawser
Founder / Ballet, Pointe 

Laura began her professional dance career at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA. There she studied Dance Performance in ballet, jazz, and modern with many renound teachers such as Ronen Koresh, Scott Jovovich, Karen Clayton, Eva Szabo etc. She then joined the Joffery Ballet School trainee program in New York City. Under the artistic director of John Magnus, Laura studied under Francesca Corkle, Era Jouravlev, Judith Rein and Davis Robertson. While at Joffery, Laura had the pleasure of taking Gelsey Kirkland's master class, a ballet icon and inspiration.

It was at Joffery where Laura's teaching techniques were inspired while teaching in the children's program. Under the direction of Liz D'Anna, Laura was influenced in teaching different levels and abilities. Erin Stiefel is also a great inspiration and mentor of Laura's to which she follows her teaching techniques as well.
