Teaching Staff

Our TAGteach™ certified staff consists of highly regarded professional dancers and performing artists, each with exceptional teaching experience. Our teachers cultivate enthusiasm in our students through their own joy in dance and out of their sincere love for children (we TAG, we don’t nag!).

Andrea Higgins
Andrea Higgins is a dancer and dance educator with a special area of focus in somatic based training techniques. She has taught Pilates for over ten years and is a certified Feldenkrais Method® practitioner. She utilizes somatic-based strategies in her work with dancers to provide them with a healthier approach to dance training and performance. In addition to her somatic training credentials and extensive professional performing experience, Andrea holds a Masters Degree in Dance from American University and is the Director and Founder of Kinesthetic Edge. Based in Walpole, MA, the company offers specialized personal training in Pilates, the Feldenkrais Method and the Alexander Technique™, as well as on-line training and a line of specialty training products. Last year, the company launched IntelliDANCE, a blog and Podcast, hosted by Andrea, that provides free Feldenkrais training to dancers and dance educators. Anyone can sign up for a free subscription to the Podcast at www.IntelliDANCE.blogspot.com, or on iTunes. [Top]
