Meet Our Teachers

 Ruby began dancing at age 3 in Auburn, MA. She trained in tap, jazz, ballet, lyrical, contemporary, hip hop, and modern, but was always drawn to tap the most for its rhythm and musicality. She attended Fairfield University, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Communication and Politics. While at Fairfield, she was a member of the Fairfield University Dance Ensemble, and served as a tap choreographer and board member of the ensemble. Since graduating, she has continued taking classes at a studio in her hometown and open classes in the Boston area. Ruby teaches an adult tap class at a studio in Rochdale, MA as well.

Ruby is also a crew member for Turn It Up Dance Challenge. As a tabulator for the competition, she helps set up the equipment for each event and works with the judges by monitoring their scores, finalizing their special award selections, and troubleshooting any tech issues. She loves watching dancers of all ages and abilities shine on stage. Ruby is excited to join MHDS and share her love of tap with the students.
