    About Me

    Hi, I'm Alessia and I am 30 years old, I was born in Italy, where I have been immersed in the world of dance since I was 7 years old. I have started studying Classical dance and Modern dance since the early stage.
    As I grew up my experience, my attention shifted to contemporary dance, inspired by the great choreographer Pina Bausch.
    My studies in Pedagogy and Psychology, combined with the continuous study of classical dance, led me to orient myself to teaching, starting my training as internships at my home school dance.
    By focusing on the study of the basis of propaedeutic dance addressed to children, I was able to increase and improve my knowledge and began to train in various institutions throughout Italy with the delivery of oral, written and practical exams.
    In addition to continuously taking courses to learn new skills as a teacher, and attending internships in which I regularly participate, I am enrolled in the faculty of physical science.

    I am able to set up an educational program for both disciplines: propaedeutic and academic ballet.
    I have ten years of work experience, and I have founded and led my own dance school for the past 3 years, managing 3 teachers. In addition to that I promptly enrich by attending myself advanced courses and seminars, aimed at improving correct teaching, and at technical, physical and mental well-being.
    I am able to motivate, organize schedules, programs and performances. As I have done several times during the years.

    Classical ballet dance at home (Casablanca) and online for children and adults with Russian teacher
    Classical dance is a wonderful hobby that combines health, sport, art and spirit! A wonderful tool for learning to move beautifully, achieving excellent physical fitness, developing artistic qualities and enriching the mind. Ballet is fundamentally a means of physical development, adopting correct posture and providing an excellent full-body workout. In addition, classical dance classes offer the opportunity to cultivate discipline, a sense of beauty, excellent taste, as well as grace, flexibility, and a sense of rhythm. Classical dance is an essential foundation for all other styles of dance.

    Shuffle/Cutting shapes dance lessons with a super enthusiastic teacher
    I started my journey of learning how to shuffle/cut shapes a little over a year ago and it ignited a flame of passion in me like nothing had in a very long time. I'd say it's turned into a somewhat spiritual experience for me. Although there is of course still a lot for me to learn and improve on and I feel like my journey has just started, I feel confident that I can help others get started on their own journey. My fundamentals as well as my knowledge and understanding of the dance are pretty solid and I would never try to teach you something that is outside of my expertise. I think at the end of the day though, the most important thing with dance is to just have fun and to learn to find confidence and freedom in your expression through it, so most of all I hope I can help you find that.

This fun and interactive class is designed to help children explore the world of dance through imaginative play, music, and movement. In these classes, children will: Explore Movement: Through playful exercises and games, children will develop coordination, balance, and body awareness. Enhance Creativity: Creative dance encourages self-expression as children explore different ways of moving, imitating animals, and telling stories through dance. Improve Motor Skills: Dance helps with physical development, building strength, flexibility, and gross motor skills. Boost Confidence: As children perform in a supportive environment, they’ll grow in confidence and learn how to express themselves freely through movement. Have Fun!: Most importantly, every session is designed to be enjoyable, engaging, and full of energy! Classes are taught in a nurturing and safe environment where children can explore dance at their own pace. Whether they’re spinning like a butterfly or jumping like a frog, your child will gain a love for movement that can last a lifetime!

    Dance Tutoring in Jazz, Commercial and Contemporary Dance
    I offer 1-2-1 sessions in dance across Jazz, Contemporary and Commercial. In these sessions I work on technique, strength and flexibility whilst having a fun enjoyable time dancing. This can be great for dancers who are preparing for college auditions, competitions or simply want to work individually to make more progress. I focus my class on the needs of each individual student and aim to bring out the confidence and unlock potential in each child.
