Ballet Coaching &         Mentoring

I have over 30 years of teaching experience in different methodologies: Vaganova, Cecchetti, French and Royal. For the past 20 years I have been teaching pre-professional upper levels. There is a great need for coaching and mentoring at this age. Besides technical abilities and artistic expression, it's very important to support the dancer's emotional and mental health as well as the physical health.

​

My coaching involves special attention to details in movement execution and interpretation. Understanding of musicality and phrasing. Working on weakness and focusing on strength. When we focus on the weakness, it generates negative responses. When we focus on strength, it fuels inspiration and motivation. But also make sure the dancer is paying attention to her/his own emotional needs.

I will also work on audition preparation including psychological resilience - The way dancers see/think of themselves; dealing with internal and external critique.

​

A private or duet session, it's ideal for fine tuning technique and expression.
