In the dynamic dance scene of New York City, Rose Lu stands out as a captivating presence, engaging students with her vibrant teaching style and contagious energy. This fall, she will bring her talents to the esteemed Broadway Dance Center, offering Intermediate and Advanced hip-hop classes four times a week. She’ll continues her influential role at PJM Dance, a rapidly growing studio where her classes consistently sell out, attracting a dedicated following.
Rose’s classes extend beyond choreography; they embody a holistic approach to dance. Her mission is to create an environment where students feel safe and encouraged to explore their creativity. A central tenet of her teaching is the notion of movement as gender-neutral, allowing students to adapt choreography to their personal style. She fosters an inclusive atmosphere where every dancer can find their voice, creating a “happy bubble” where mistakes are welcomed. As one student shared, “Rose has been an incredible asset to me in my dance journey... she creates a space that feels safe and supportive for us to explore.” This commitment allows dancers to push boundaries and overcome limiting beliefs.
Recently, Rose gained recognition in the New York dance community through standout performances, including the RedBull Dancer Performance in June 2024 and the Ka Zo Ku show in summer 2023 at Peridance KnJ Theater, directed by Kenichi Kasamatsu. These experiences solidified her reputation as both an artist and educator, attracting students eager to learn from her unique style.
Rose draws students nationwide—including the Bay Area, Washington D.C., and the East Coast. Her distinctive blend of street jazz, hip-hop, and grooves has received significant acclaim. With a consistent roster of at least 40 dedicated dancers each month, her classes are in high demand. As requests for commissioned work continue to rise, her influence is clearly expanding.
Rose emphasizes the importance of positive energy, greeting students with enthusiasm and cheering them on throughout class. Her spirited approach creates an uplifting atmosphere that encourages connection and laughter. One student remarked, “I used to be terrified of cartwheels or handstands, but Rose has helped me become so much more confident!” This positive energy transforms the classroom into a supportive community where everyone can thrive.
At the core of Rose's teaching is the concept of "Mind Over Body." She guides her students to prioritize mental strength, understanding that the mind influences the body. Through visualization techniques, she fosters a deeper connection between her students and their movements. A student expressed, "I feel that Rose truly wants us to grow as dancers by understanding ourselves, our bodies, and our minds deeply." This focus on mental resilience enhances their dance skills and nurtures personal growth.
As the dance world observes Rose’s ascent, her dedication to nurturing talent and creativity is evident. For those fortunate enough to step into her classroom, each session offers a chance to discover joy, courage, and the exhilarating possibilities of dance. With her guidance, the future of her students looks not only promising but profoundly impactful.
