Erin Nobbe received her primary dance training under the direction of Marguerite Phares.  At age 10, she joined the Phares Theatre Ballet.  During the eight years she was with PTB, Erin trained with many professional choreographers and teachers, spent two summers with the Boston Ballet, and gained an extensive background in ballet, modern, jazz and character dance.  At the age of eighteen, Erin began her professional career with Ballet Iowa under the directorship of internationally known Konstintin Uralsky and Irina Vassilini-Uralsky. Erin was a principal dancer in several classical and neo-classical ballets.  Upon returning to Sacramento, Erin began teaching at Hawkins School of Performing Arts in 1999.  She has been a guest dancer for Phares Theatre Ballet and worked as a guest choreographer for the Ballet Folsom.  Erin took several Hawkins’ students to the international ballet competition “Youth America Grand Prix”.  The students had an opportunity to work with internationally known teachers and directors in a workshop at the San Francisco Ballet School.  Erin is now staying busy with teaching, private instruction, guest work with Folsom Lake Civic Ballet and, of course, her five year old son, Colin.
