Trusted teacher: Are you interested in learning the fundamentals of contemporary dance while also gaining a deeper insight into your own personal movement style, working on the mobility and flexibility of the body and learning to express yourself in your own unique way? I offer classes in three different areas: (there is of course the possibility of tailoring the lesson combining elements of all three classes, depending on the needs and wishes of the student) 1. Contemporary dance Lesson description: We will learn the basic skills of contemporary dance (release technique) and floorwork, improve mobility and learn choreographic sequences and soft acrobatics. The classes are structured around a dynamic warm-up and strengthening, mobilization of the muscles and activation of the core, the spine and the limbs. Engaging in floorwork exercises, the focus is on gaining control of our weight, on moving with flow and continuity without excessive muscular force and on saving energy and avoiding injuries. We will learn basic skills and soft acrobatics (shoulder rolls, spiral rolls, floor spins, knee slides, handstands). During the end of the lesson, we create a choreography sequence and cool- down with relaxation and stretching exercises. Benefits: body awareness, reduced stress, improved balance & coordination, flexibility, core strength, self - expression, boost of energy & confidence 2. Dance condition (workout/barre/fitness) Lesson Description: The purpose of the course is to teach essential tools in order for students to enhance flexibility and strength, body awareness and coordination. The lesson starts with a warm-up of guided improvisation to music. We continue with short barre exercises. We make use of conditioning, strengthening and coordination, barre workout and balance exercises. The lesson aims to improve the body's range of motion, flexibility, stability, and overall functional movement. Through guided exercises the students learn how to enhance their physical fitness and prevent injuries. Every lesson ends with a cool-down. Benefits: enhanced creativity and spontaneity, confidence and relaxation, reduced stress, body awareness 3. Movement & improvisation Lesson description: The purpose of the lesson is for students to explore their personal movement and their compositional skills, to feel comfortable with spontaneous movement and enhance body awareness and creativity through movement. We will start with a warm-up of guided improvisation and some short warm-up exercises to prepare for the lesson. We will make use of improvisational techniques to train our awareness and responsiveness, to learn how to incorporate flow and effortlessness to our movement in order to prevent injuries and we will use music and sound as tools to expand our movement vocabulary and free our body of stress, forms and stiffness. The lesson is also suitable for actors/ performers or dancers of all levels and styles who wish to expand their movement language and return to basics in order to explore anew their bodies' possibilities from different perspectives. Each lesson lasts one hour. All lessons are suitable for all levels (beginner - intermediate - advanced). All lessons are tailored to the needs and wishes of students.

Trusted teacher: What was Mikhail Barishnikov, Rudolf Nureyev, Natalia Osipova, and all the other Russian dancers’ secret to success? The one thing they all have in common is their training in the Russian ballet method of Vaganova. This professional method has been developed over the decades to become the most effective method in the world. The grandeur of the legendary Russian Bolshoi and Marinskii theatres speak for themselves. For this reason, I have gone to Russia to study for my bachelors in this method at the University of Moscow, and together with my collective experience in teaching ballet, am waiting to train you to become the next ballet legend. WHAT DO CLASSES LOOK LIKE? Each lesson is 1 hour 30 minutes, the sweet spot between length of attention span, physical endurance span, and building stamina. Ballet classes are structured according to the Russian ballet method of Vaganova, and body conditioning classes include professionally developed exercises specifically for dancers. I customize lessons to work on what my students most need, and therefore weak spots are attended to until they are wiped out. Lessons are conducted online in the convenience of your own home, saving both time and transport costs. WILL YOU BENEFIT FROM THESE LESSONS? My lessons are for you if you any one of the following scenarios describes your situation: 1) YOU DO NOT ATTEND ANY OTHER BALLET CLASSES - classes include a full syllabus, examinations are optional, and you can therefore attend my online lessons as your only source of ballet. 2) YOU ALREADY ATTEND OTHER BALLET LESSONS - I also offer the option for you to take these classes as a supplementary addition to classes at your studio in order to boost your scores in exams and competitions, and improve your technique, strength, allegro, and stability in pirouettes, balance, and pointe. This gives you the chance of becoming the new class hero, and enjoy the freedom of dancing without worrying about stamina, faulty technique, low leg height, weak allegro, and gruesome posture. 3) YOU ARE A DANCER, BUT YOU DO NOT DO BALLET - my body conditioning classes are beneficial for dancers of all genres. It teaches complete control over the body, promoting stability, strength, leg height, good balance and stamina. WHAT LEVELS DO I TEACH? I currently teach beginner, intermediate and semi-advanced levels (RAD levels would translate as all levels up to Advanced 1), for children from age 10+ and adults. Although I am qualified to teach higher levels, I currently do not have time to choreograph full classes at such high intensity and complication. ABOUT DANÉ - I am an experienced ballet teacher who loves ballet, people and teaching. To make it more interesting, here is my experience starting now and going backward: Currently I am studying at the university of Moscow where I have been voted the best student of the institute by my lecturers, and have attained cum laude so far in all my subjects. I began studying for my bachelors in Moscow September 2020. I have 14 subjects including the Russian ballet method of Vaganova and several other dance styles, body conditioning for dancers, choreography, music and acting. Due to current events I study online from South Africa for now. In my free time I teach ballet and write scripts for productions, sometimes staging my choreography when time allows. Prior to this, I studied Russian for a year in Kazan, Russia (this is a requirement if you study choreography in Moscow). Before going to Russia I founded and directed my own ballet school in Johannesburg from 2017-2019, and staged 3 productions. During this time I trained with the Russian School of Ballet in South Africa, attained a distinction for my exam and took part in their production at the Roodepoort State Theatre. Before this I trained with the RAD with many distinctions up to Advanced 1, but changed to the Russian method just before taking my Advanced 2 exam (if you take classes with me you will understand why;)). Furthermore, I won countless gold, A+ and special awards in festivals, eisteddfods and competitions, several of them including my own choreography. I was part of a theatre group from 2016-2017, where I performed the lead role in the Roodepoort State Theatre. I have done ballet since 2003, and was schooled in an American syllabus from grade 1 to graduation.
