Sarah has performed with numerous contemporary dance companies in NYC including Mark Lamb Dance, Renee Gerardo Dances, Sarah Council Dance Projects, Catey Ott Dance Collective, Daniela Hoff Dance Company, HT Chen & Dancers, and Beth Leonard/The Construction Company. Most recently Sarah has been performing as SarahBesque the clown, whose work converges Sarahs love of dance, humor, theater, and above all, the audience. She is grateful to Spoke the Hub for fostering her creative pursuits and her teaching practice, and for helping her share her love of dance with so many young dancers over the years.

He now coaches the Gym Dandies Childrens Circus of Scarborough and organizes programming at the Living Room Dance Collective in South Portland. Janoah performs his unique blend of circus, dance, performance art and puppetry all over New England, leaving behind a wake of tumbled juggling props!
