A stretch and release dance class offers a unique blend of movement, relaxation, and rejuvenation.
Participants experience the physical benefits of improved flexibility, increased range of motion, and reduced muscle tension through targeted stretching techniques.
This type of class helps to alleviate tightness in muscles and joints, promoting better posture and alignment while preventing injuries.
Beyond the physical, the focus on mindful movement and breath encourages mental relaxation and stress relief, fostering a sense of calm and well-being.
Additionally, the emphasis on fluid, flowing movements enhances body awareness and encourages a deeper connection between mind and body.
Overall, a stretch and release dance class provides a holistic approach to self-care, leaving participants feeling energized, refreshed, and balanced.
Dance fitness offers a dynamic and enjoyable way to achieve health and wellness goals. Incorporating elements of dance into fitness routines not only improves cardiovascular health, endurance, and flexibility but also promotes weight management and muscle tone.
Unlike traditional workouts, dance fitness engages participants with rhythmic movements and music, making exercise feel more like a joyful experience than a chore.
Moreover, it enhances coordination, balance, and agility, benefiting overall physical function and reducing the risk of injury. Beyond its physical benefits, dance fitness boosts mood and mental well-being by releasing endorphins and reducing stress levels.
It also fosters self-confidence and body positivity, as individuals embrace their bodies' capabilities and celebrate movement in a supportive environment.
Dance Fitness offers a holistic approach to health that nourishes the body, mind, and spirit.

It is an opportunity to organize thoughts and focus on the here and now. In addition, yoga strengthens the body and improves mood. It has a positive effect on the flexibility and balance of our body.
What are the benefits of this practice? First of all, it helps to strengthen the human body, build endurance and willpower. This yoga helps to relax and improves the ability to cope with stress. It has a positive effect on blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Due to the diversity of this practice, it improves muscle flexibility. Also, this practice fills the body with energy, boosts immunity and improves your posture.

Science , Chemistry, Biology ,Public Health and Health BasicsOnce upon a time, I found science, math and health courses a bit tricky, just like you might. But guess what? I didn't let that stop me. Instead, I turned the tough parts into stepping stones for success.
I figured out a way to understand science and math by breaking them into smaller, easier parts. It wasn't always easy, but I didn't give up. Those challenges became the basis for my journey to success.
Now, imagine this: I'm not just a tutor; I'm someone who conquered the subjects that once seemed really hard. Science, math, and health-related courses became my friends in life, leading me to a place where I want to help you succeed.
I know what it's like, and I know we can do this together. Let's make your learning journey a story of success

Yoga & Meditation with an International Certified Teacher!Yoga is a way of life! All you have to do is set aside some time and leave the rest to me. The process will make you feel better. You will enjoy this journey:)
Yoga is much more than what we see on social media ;)
Yoga was first referenced in the ancient sacred Rig Ved literature. Yoga = Yuj/Yoke/unite-union-joining (with the divine wisdom of the universe). Yoga, according to yoga sutra philosophy, is concentration. It is a holistic science based on yoga philosophy. It encompasses the whole person: body, mind, intellect, and consciousness.
We will concentrate on your personalized approach!! Especially for you! You will have my whole attention. Bring back the ability to breathe, relax, and regenerate while performing some amazing asanas, kriya, mudra, and pranayama. There are many more. After the practice, you will feel revitalized. Consider it. These sensations are positive and will carry over into your daily lives.
Take a deep breath and don't think too hard. Schedule a session and enjoy the ride!
I teach overseas, in addition to business organizations and individual customers.
Aside from Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Himalayan, and Iyengar yoga, I understand you and work accordingly.
So, let's see you on the mat.

Dance & Therapy session | Transcendental EmbodimentAre you seeking for a creative and uplifting way to consciously reconnect with yourself ? Transcendental Embodiment is a dance practice that will guide you to embrace your emotions and help you to reach your true authentic self. Through meditative dances, guided imageries, and energy healing modalities.
I am here to support and guide you in your process of discovering your inner power through:
- chakras alignment, guided meditation, breathing exercises
- self-expression & subjective experience through dance
- expanding your heart space, emotional awareness, and healing in movement and dance
- release of stress, judgment, and trapped emotions
- grounding, self-care, resilience
- and more...
The sessions are tailored to the specific needs and capabilities of each individual.
*Dance can be a practice of introspection, transformation, and transcendence of one’s subjective experiences into a worldwide journey.
*
As a professional dancer, teacher, and performance maker I am introspectively processing each working day in consciousness, listening to my upcoming emotions, triggers, or anxiety when it comes to be physically and mentally performative in a team, or as a freelance artist.
Instead of suppressing these emotions and creating energetical and mental blockages (that can end up into somatic pains or burn-out): we should pay more attention to these inner warning messages and strengthen our emotional intelligence to be able to cope with the infinitesimal external stimulus and daily-stress of our very fast lives.
It can be challenging to sense with clarity what is the origin of some feelings of frustration, unsatisfaction, discomfort, or grief, and it can be intimidating or discouraging to walk alone on that path.
This class helps you to commit to your better-being, presence to oneself countering wellness procrastination.
* What do you need to feel lighter, brighter, or happier in your everyday life? *
* What is your self-achievement potentiality? *
- For who? : For anyone who enjoys movement and dance, and desires a better connection and understanding with their moving bodies. / One-to-one or group sessions.
- Where? : Online via SKYPE or at the student's location.
Values: Integrity, Transparency, Respect, Cooperation
* About TE :
Transcendental Embodiment (TE) is the result of three years of research and development. Merging from a movement philosophy research entitled Behind & Beyond, to its phenomenological understanding. The metaphysical unity of the tangible and intangible bodies expounds on the undeniable relationships between those in the physical realm. The tangible body (the material vehicle), the intangibles bodies (psychological, emotional, energetical, and spiritual). As a dance healing practice, guiding the practitioner to conscious corporeality, and subjective emotional understanding, this methodology can also be a useful tool to improve artistry and technical skills on a deeper level, widening mindful creativity, awareness, empathy, and sensitivity.
(TE) movement and dance methodology combines a meditative approach in stillness and through movement, awakening the mind, spreading the awareness into different body parts; putting a specific emphasis on improvisation skills, and musicality, following energy impulses and intuitive movement and increasing the flow of energy. Inviting the practitioners to practice resilience, non-self definition, non-judgment, self-care and self-love, integrity, and acceptance to overcome technical, physical, and mental limits holding the practitioner from his self-achievement potentiality. This approach builds itself crescendo on subjective movement reflexivity and introspective journey through the following process:
* The four steps:
Being | Investigation | Exploration | Dedication
Unconscious - Subconscious - Conscious - Transcendental Consciousness

🥇 Ritmo Latino: Private lessons of SALSA and BACHATA in Geneva or at your home 🏠. Beginner, intermediate, advanced levels. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️● All levels ● All ages ● Flexibility to suit your musical tastes.
💃 Hello everyone!! Get ready to add some spice to your moves and dive into the electrifying world of Latin music! My name is Evelyn, a dance enthusiast from Peru, currently residing in Geneva while pursuing my master's degree.
🎶 I invite you to join my exciting dance classes, where I will guide you through the infectious rhythms of salsa, bachata, and zumba, infusing each lesson with the unique flavors of Latin American culture.
🎯 My main goal is your comfort, because to me, dance is a way to express yourself and live life fully. I want my students to enjoy every step without any pressure and to experience the joy of moving to Latin rhythms. My classes are open to all ages. I look forward to awakening the dancer within you and connecting you with the rhythms that make our hips sway and our hearts sing!
☘️ When I start working with students, they often repeat the same patterns—mechanical, rigid steps memorized from 1 to 7. Dancing becomes a mere imitation rather than a natural expression.
I’m here to help you transform what you’ve learned in group classes and take your dancing to the next level.
In my classes, I teach you to feel salsa and bachata. If you feel them, you’ll be able to dance anywhere, with anyone, with confidence and flow. We’ll work from the foundation:
✔️ You’ll learn to identify and follow the rhythm.
✔️ You’ll understand transitions and how to adapt to them.
✔️ You’ll develop your skills in partner dancing.
From the very first class, we’ll correct what’s necessary so that you don’t just improve—you build a solid foundation that allows you to express yourself naturally. Are you ready to feel the dance? 💃🔥
🌟 P.S.: Besides teaching Latin dances, I have experience in creating custom choreographies for weddings and special events. If you have a choreography in mind, feel free to share it, and we’ll learn it together!
FAQ
● Do I need dance shoes? No, that is not necessary. I recommend coming with comfortable shoes.
● What should I wear? I suggest you come in light clothes in which you feel comfortable.
● Alone or accompanied? You can come either alone or with a partner. I also offer couples classes.
● Other questions? Feel free to contact me!
