Felice Moskowitz has spent close to forty years as a public school educator and feels blessed to have been a positive influence in so many young lives. She received her degree in, and began her career teaching English. Later, her love of dance brought her to Portland’s Jefferson Dance program, where she taught jazz at both the high school and at a number of middle schools until 1999. Since then she has been on staff at Beaverton School District’s Arts and Communication Magnet Academy where she teaches introductory, intermediate and repertoire dance classes while also serving as the manager of Dance West, the school’s pre-professional training company. Summers are spent at the prestigious Idyllwild Arts Academy in Southern California, where she teaches and choreographs musical theater for middle school students. She has been an active member of the International Network for Performing and Visual Arts Schools and served as Dance Chair for the Oregon Association of Physical Education. She prides herself on her ability to connect professional performers and artists with public school performance curriculum.
Other passions include traveling and enjoying life with her very supportive fiancé, Sonny Jepson. She also enjoys cooking, reading, golf, yoga and pug, Caesar. She is the proud mother of Shoshana Bean, who recently released her debut CD, “Superhero,” following a successful run on Broadway in Hairspray and Wicked.
Felice is honored and thrilled to be a participant in “Dancing with Portland’s Stars” because the Assistance League’s programs support so many of the students she has been fortunate enough to have taught.
