Comment:

Such a kind, non-judgmental professor! Even when students don't do what is asked of them, he treats them with grace and respect and is willing to help everyone be on the same page. He treats everyone equally and fairly and wants all of his students to succeed. I would recommend you take any of his classes! He will ignite a love for learning.

Comment:

I just took this class for fun and loved it! Having taken only 1 ballet class at a studio before, this class was a struggle at first. However, I learned so much about how to hold myself, which muscles to use, and how to transition correctly. I really enjoyed this class and Kenneth is a fantastic teacher. He has more energy than will EVER have!

Comment:

I don't have words to describe Kenneth. He is one if the reasons why I am the type of dance teacher that is super aware of how the body works and how as dancers we need to work with our body differently so we can dance forever. He doesn't let you have and act with a big head in class, there is a reason why you are there and its to learn.

Comment:

Kenneth is really one of the best dance teachers you could ever take a dance class from. He doesn't push you in any way that will hurt, strain or tweak any part of your body. I really wish I had taken class from him before I went to the studio I did for 12 yrs of my life. I wouldn't be having issues with my ankle if I had him as a teach first.

Kenneth is fantastic ! Nicest professor ever. If you get on his bad side you really just suck at life because he's definitely easy to get along with.

Manipulative guy. Can be very moody at times. Watch yourself in this class. Scratch the surface and he is not fair at all.

Kenneth is very helpful and gives great criticism and advice. Kenneth is one of the nicest, most respectful professor I have ever met. Great guy, great professor, but most of all, he is a great dancer! :)

Comment:

After 14 years of dance training with the same teacher it was nice to be taught by a new teacher. Kenneth is kind of out there but he definetly knows his stuff. Kinda boring at times but easy class. 4 easy tests and must attend some kind of theather production but overall easy class

Comment:

If you willingly participate in class and complete all assignments (which are clearly written in the syllabus) you'll do great in this class. Kenneth is absolutely fair and knowledgeable! This is college people, you should expect to be edified, not entertained. If you're not open to learning, and just want an easy A then you shouldn't be in college

DON'T DO IT! This is the most boring class I have ever taken. Unless you enjoy walking back and forth across the room...all semester, find a different professor. He is extremely moody, and does not grade fairly.
