Beginning with the start of its 2011-2012 season, Dancing For Jesus will expand classes in classical ballet and pointe with instruction provided by Ms Stephanie Heston.

Ms. Heston is originally from Topeka, Kansas and enjoyed a nearly 15 year career as a professional ballerina performing all over the United States as well as internationally. Throughout the years Ms. Heston has taught classical ballet to all levels and all ages at various schools around the country and enjoys choreographing original works for students. From 2009-2011 she served as Artistic Director of North Ballet Academy and Youth Company in Rogers, MN where she developed a comprehensive 10 year ballet syllabus loosely based on the Vaganova Method and created a full length original production of ‘The Nutcracker’ that was well received by critics and audiences alike. Ms. Heston is passionate about sharing her experience, knowledge and love of classical ballet with the next generation of dancers and is excited to help develop the ballet program at Dancing For Jesus.
