JÄRVI RAUDSEPP

Järvi Raudsepp is a professional ballet dancer and teacher trained by Nadia Veselova-Tencer. At the age of 17, she was offered a contract with the National Ballet of Estonia. Following two years dancing in her country of heritage, she continued her career working with Orlando Ballet, Ontario Ballet Theatre, and Festival Ballet Providence. In 2010, she began performing part time in order to turn her attention to her other passion within the world of ballet, teaching. She was at the helm of the ballet program as head ballet instructor and choreographer at A2Y Dance Inc. in Aurora, Ontario until 2016, teaching students ages 2 through to 19. Järvi honed her expertise with building students’ technical skill and strength, artistry, passionate expression, and musicality. In addition, she poured her heart into creating an environment encouraging confidence, determination, discipline, strong work ethic, positivity, and teamwork, and was overjoyed to see the influence it had on her students' growth.

With the background in teaching and performing she has developed, Järvi now devotes her time to dancing and teaching freelance in order to embrace a rich variety of experiences.
