Dance
with Kristel Bowman

   

          

"I am excited to offer instruction in the coming season to students at the French Art Colony Dance Studio. Dance has always been a part of my life, and teaching for the FAC provides me with the opportunity to share my skills and experience in what I most love to do."

-Kristel Bowman

   

Our dance instructor, Kristel Bowman, is a junior at Ohio University studying Education and Dance. Her background is outstanding. She comes from a family of dancers and has been surrounded by dance since birth.

Kristel began dancing at the age of 3 at her grandparent’s school, Bruckman School of Dance, in Pittsburgh, Pa. studying ballet and tap. Since then, she has studied with many instructors at many studios including Ballet Met in Columbus and Ohio University. She is accomplished in all styles of dance including tap, ballet, jazz, modern, lyrical, pointe and video jazz.

Kristel began instructing on a regular basis in 2002 at Bruckman School of Dance. In the summer of 2005 she was sought out to teach at The Providence Family Support Center, in Pittsburgh, Pa. Kristel was also sought out by The North Hills High School dance team to choreograph and instruct competition routines for the following school year.

Kristel is accomplished at teaching all afore mentioned styles of dance as well as pre-ballet and pre-dance. She has experience in teaching students of all ages, from 3-40.

Kristel has studied ballet, modern, jazz, and choreography at Ohio University and has completed the core curriculum of her dance degree there. She is now studying outside of Ohio University’s main requirements of ballet and modern.
