My classes are open to curious beginners, seasoned movers, and everyone in between. You'll learn to move with intention, care, and joy — at your own pace, with personal attention and a spirit of exploration.

You can choose to focus on ballet, yoga, or a balanced mix of both. We can also work toward specific goals such as posture improvement, flexibility, or choreography development. Private and small group sessions available.
Extra information
*comfortable clothing suitable for movement (leotard, leggings, soft shoes or barefoot for yoga).

For ballet: If possible, bring ballet slippers. If not, soft socks are fine for beginners.
For yoga: Please bring your mat, if available.

-I adapt each session to the student’s level and goals — no prior experience required.
-Lessons can be held in English, French, or Turkish.
-I offer RAD exam preparation upon request.

About Me
A passionate and experienced ballet and yoga teacher with over 15 years of teaching and movement practice.

My journey began in Turkey, where I studied and taught classical ballet using the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) and Vaganova methods. Over the years, I’ve expanded my practice through contemporary dance, body awareness techniques, and certified yoga instruction. My classes combine the discipline of technique with the joy and mindfulness of movement.

I’ve taught students of all ages — from small children taking their first ballet steps, to adults discovering movement later in life. I believe it’s never too early to dance, stretch, and reconnect with your body.

I dance to create a welcoming, non-judgmental space where every student feels supported and inspired. Whether you are preparing for a RAD exam, exploring yoga to reduce stress, or simply wanting to move with more grace and strength, I’m here to guide you with care and dedication.

Methodology

How is it going?

During our first interview, you will tell me about your history and your goals. If you wish, we can define your goals together. We can then agree on a first session during which we will make a simple assessment of your different physical qualities.

Thanks to this different information, I will build a tailor-made training program, which will allow you to reach your goal in a progressive and adapted way, avoiding any risk of injury.

We will then agree on the best times to suit your schedule. The sessions can take place in Brussels at home, in the gym, or outside (weather permitting).

My name is Valentine, I am a certified sports coach in fitness, specializing in fitness and well-being. I give individual fitness classes in Brussels.

My experience in several types of sports such as boxing, yoga, Crossfit (or Functional Training), weightlifting, fitness and HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) gave me the opportunity to fully explore and to push my physical and mental limits, and I want to use this experience for the benefit of my clients.

For me, sport values the importance of balance in life: the body (Body) and the mind (Mind) work together and should be seen as a whole. Bodymind.


If you are interested in trying to understand yourself better physically, to be ahead physiologically, and perhaps more emotionally stable, just contact me. We will define your goals together and I will help you achieve them.

I am fluent in French, English, Dutch and Italian, and am able to conduct sports coaching sessions in these languages.
