Our Amazing Teachers
Kira started performing at age 3, and teaching at age 14. She has taught teaching PGY for over 6 years and her upbeat, contemporary style makes her a favorite teacher with the performers. Kira uses her passion for hip hop, rhythm, and harmony, to keep her students challenged and she takes great joy in helping them learn to do things they didn't think they could do.
Emily has been teaching and involved with PGY for over 5 years. She has been extensively involved in Performing Arts her entire life where she loves to direct, sing and perform. She enjoys teaching children and helping them develop their talents and to have confidence in themselves.

Singing, dancing and teaching combines some of my favorite things into one place. If I could only teach on the beach it would cover everything. I started singing and dancing at a young age and loved being on stage. I believe it is important to develop our talents and I love the confidence that comes through doing such. I have my degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Development. I love working with children and find great pride in helping them achieve their goals. I am excited to be apart of the PGY program.
Bethany has been dancing since the age of three. She studied tap and jazz under Cynthia Hall and ballet under Jean Fulton, former owner of Sierra Dance Academy in Roseville. In 2005, she started a dance program for Orangevale Recreation and Park District, and is currently the Creative Arts Director at Whispering Oak Montessori in Citrus Heights, and the dance instructor at Fair Oaks Recreation and Park District. Bethany has worked with all age groups, and specializes in teaching the youngest performers.

Kapri Lyons performed in PGY for eleven years before becoming a teacher last year. Her time in PGY helped her develop beat, rhythm and hip hop moves and techniques. She loves watching the kids having so much fun during the practices, growing their performance skills throughout semester, and seeing how much energy and fun they bring to the stage on perfomrance night!
