Julie Hast

Instructor

Paul Manaster
Aka Julie Tea, was first hired to assist the dance teacher at the age of 12, but didn’t become a professional dancer until after receiving her degree from UCLA in Kinesiology. Being part of the chorus in the L.A. production of 42nd Street led to several national commercials, television and industrial gigs along with a number of benefits, performing with or for some of show business’ greats. Julie has appeared in numerous musicals, developed choreography for children both on stage and in videos, has been a technique coach for dance, drill and tall flag competition teams, and is part of Pam Covas’ Honey Taps dance company. When she isn’t dancing or working with kids, she’s either developing environmental education, producing videos, or teaching businesses how to reduce waste and recycle.
