Georgi’s first year at Nature’s Way was in 2008. She was here for two years then moved to Thailand where she taught music and movement at The American School of Bangkok. Back in the USA, she is feeling at home as she rejoins the Nature’s Way staff. A seasoned teacher, Georgi brings many years of experience to her students. She has taught music in traditional and Montessori settings, dance and yoga to children and adults, and has been a performing artist in schools around the world. She spread her love of music to teachers as she trained them in how to incorporate music, storytelling, and movement into their classrooms. Currently she is enjoying staying local, traveling feet asleep for a while. She is very grateful to be sharing music, movement, and stories with Nature’s Way students and she get to teach all ages!! What a gift.
