What Powerhouse dancers are saying about Nicole:

“Nicole’s class is pure tap technique- no fluff. You will come in, be challenged, and leave feeling so proud of yourself and all you’ve learned. She breaks down the steps with accurate counts and provides alternatives for any trick step. It is always a treat to learn from a tap master like her!”

“I love Nicole’s tap classes because they really challenge me! She choreographs unique rhythms and includes new steps I don’t often think of trying.”

“She is great at offering modifications if you don’t feel comfortable with tricky steps.”
