Dance Coach & Tryout Trainer
Tryout training, choreography, and coaching resources for dancers who want to make the team and coaches who want to lead one.
I'm a dance coach, choreographer, and someone who loves helping dancers train for tryouts. I started dancing when I was three years old, and getting to share that love of dance with my students is honestly one of my favorite things about what I do.
When I'm not dancing or training with one of my dancers, you can find me with an iced espresso in hand, taking photos, or planning my next beach trip. I'm a big believer that the best coaches pour into their people, and that's exactly what I'm here to do. I created Atelier, my training hub for dancers ready to make teams, sharpen technique, and grow with real coaching behind them.
If you're a dancer who wants to make the team or a coach who wants to lead a stronger one, I'd love to work with you!

How It Works
After purchase, you’ll receive an instant PDF download containing a link to your Canva template. Click “Click here for your team book” to create your own editable copy, then customize it with your team’s information. Once you’re finished, you can print your Team Book yourself or have it professionally printed at the printing shop of your choice.
Want Me to Design It for You?
If you love the Team Book but don’t want to customize it yourself, check out my Premium Custom Team Book option. You send me your team information, and I personally design your Team Book for you!
Please Note:
This listing is for a digital Canva template only. No physical book will be printed or shipped.
This version uses Canva’s free design elements so it can be fully customized without a Canva Pro account. Because of that, some graphics may differ slightly from the Team Book you’ve seen me use on social media and from the Premium Custom Team Book, which may include Canva Pro design elements.
Best for: Dance team coaches who want an organized, ready-to-customize system for managing their season.
This 16 page editable practice planner is the exact system I use as a dance team coach to plan, organize, and run efficient practices all season long!

All pages are fully editable in Canva, so you can customize them with your team name, dates, routines, and season needs. Each page is clean, minimal, and print-friendly or laptop/iPad-friendly which is perfect for real practices, not just pretty planners!
