Pat Planet grew up in New York City and has been dancing since age five. He trained at Broadway Dance Center and The Ailey School, where he met his mentor, Bev Brown, and began dancing professionally at 17 for TV, commercials, and live stage.
He has taught and choreographed at studios across the United States and in Europe, and dances for the Boston Celtics at TD Garden. He also holds a J.D. from Penn State Dickinson Law.
I teach dance as a craft and a conversation. Every class starts with the body, then builds toward choreography that asks for technique, musicality, and presence at the same time.
I care more about how each dancer moves than how closely they copy me. Beginners and trained dancers work side by side, and both are expected to grow.
The goal is progress you can feel: cleaner technique, stronger retention, and the confidence to bring yourself into the room.
"New York trained. Boston based."
