Taking ballet classes with Viola has been my great pleasure. Her style of teaching is really enjoyable and she is such a kind and caring teacher. Definitely the ideal dance teacher you would be looking for!
Are you into music, dancing and performing arts in general? Would you like some low-impact activity to work on strengthening and stretching all the different group muscles? Or would you like to refine and improve your dance technique over the school holidays? I can help you! Whether dance is your passion in life or you would just like to try something new, I'm here for you. I'm a qualified Ballet and Modern dance teacher (ISTD qualified, can also train you for recognized dance examinations) able to deliver dance and stretching/pilates-based classes at all levels. No equipment is required, just a safe space to explore your body's ability from the comfort of your own place.
Are you studying Italian but want to expand your vocabulary and conversation skills? Talking to a native Italian speaker is the best way to improve your language skills! I'm 24 and was born in Italy (Siena, Tuscany, to be more specific) and move to London three years ago. I'm a performer and dance teacher, but over the years I have also worked as a teaching assistant in primary schools, so I have experience working with children as well as adults. I graduated high school in Italy with the highest marks 100/100, specialising in classical studies especially Italian language and literature. I'm willing to help students or Italian learners of every level to improve their skills and level of confidence and even help in preparation for tests or examinations.
Would you like some low-impact activity to work on strengthening and stretching all the different group muscles? While also easing your thoughts and giving yourself a moment of relax and mindfulness? Then Pilates is for you. I’m a qualified profession dancer and dance teacher and I can help you stretch and strengthen the core areas of your body with low-impact exercises tailored to your ability. It’s also scientifically proven that exercise also boosts your mood and confidence, so it can definitely be considered an act of self care.

Private and group ballet classes with the Vaganova graduate
My class is based on the famous Vaganova method. Therefore during our work we will focus on the correct technique of movement and its style, so you will learn not only how to do elements correctly but also will understand how to make your dance look beautiful and catching for audience. Also I stand for a positive approach in the educational process, because I am deeply convinced that this kind of attitude is one of the main keys to improvement. You can study with me: Classical ballet Point work Ballet Repertoire Stretching Ballet gymnastics

Ballet class, stretching. Work on the base and sequence.
I adjust the class level to the level of the students. Students should know the basic movements. We will also pay attention to stretching. For the first lessons, I need to understand the student's level, and then I individually develop a program for each student.

Ciar
Contemporary Dance Class and Tutoring - Intermediate / Advanced
Ciar is a recent graduate of Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance; a versatile queer dance artist freelancing in London with a background in Hip-Hop, Circus Arts, Classical Ballet and Contemporary dance. I hope to offer everyone an exciting and enjoyable time whilst pushing thier physical capabilities. Dance should be fun! My class explores a choreographic style of contemporary dance with clear influences from Cunningham technique and my recent expirience working with Jason Mabana. The work will challenge your coordination, rhythm, attention to detail and demostrate a contemporary application of classical teachnical forms, but all through explorative and original material. The class is structured like any other technical class, each exercise desinged to methodicaly warm up and work the body, building on the previous exercises, before culminating in a longer choreography where we can pull everything together and just have a boogie. I can tailor the work to each student however I would reccomend having some technical expirience, classical or contemporary.

Jen
Yoga/Dance/Human Animal Flow Movement Fusion Class
In these sessions you'll crawl, stretch, and flow through playful, strength-building movements inspired by nature’s creatures, blending flexibility, balance, and power. With a mix of crawling, lunging, and twisting, you’ll boost mobility and strength while having fun.

Nicholas
Private Dance Tutoring - Contemporary Dance / Ballet
After training in Ballet & Contemporary at Rambert School, I danced professionally for over a decade with companies such as Richard Alston Dance Company, National Dance Company Wales and Michael Clark Company. I can teach and coach on a range of contemporary dance styles, choreography and performance and audition skills. We will improve strength & flexibility, improve coordination and develop technique. I primarily danced with Cunningham technique but have good experience of other techniques such as Graham, release and Gaga. As a qualified physiotherapist, I can also teach about the anatomy of a dancer and how to look after the body and overcome injury. I look forward to supporting younger students to enjoy dance whilst also developing their technique, musicality and dance proficiency.
