What do you consider important in dance classes?

​

In my technique classes, I consider it important to offer versatile development and support young dancers’ body awareness through coordination, balance, and dance technique exercises. In children’s and youth classes in general, I consider it important to establish a connection with each of my students so that everyone feels noticed and important in the studio. I do everything I can to create an environment full of smiles, laughter, successes, and inevitable failures in my classes, from which we can learn together and grow into even better dancers. I want to see motivation in my dancers to be present in the studio, a desire to develop, to surprise themselves, the ability to enjoy themselves, and to create friendships and shared memories.
