Classical ballet and dance classes for queer/trans people

From 25.07 C$ /h

We know ballet is a very specific field where some of us could feel unsafe; after 18 years of practice in it as a queer/trans person, I realize there is no space for us there; but that's also untrue, we can make that space. So this is what I will try to do with these classes. A comfortable place to move and learn the technique of it, and if you already know it, to develop it further and be accompanied always.

Extra information

Just bring yourselves and comfortable clothes.

About Me

I am a professional dancer now living in Brussels. I taught ballet for 5 years, from 5 year old kids to 25 year old people. I dance contemporary and have now an ongoing piece/duet that we are performing around Belgium. I am graduated in Classical Ballet and I have been dancing it since I'm 3. After long time hating it, I found my peace with it in my own way, which is what I would like to share with you if you also have that feeling.
I am a queer-trans person in the field of arts, which can be easy and... not at all at the same time. We need safe spaces to be ourselves and dance as ourselves.

I am Daniela, Colombian, psychologist, coach and dance teacher for 14 years. I have experience giving private and group lessons in salsa, hip hop, jazz, classical dance and creating and learning choreography for weddings or other events.
The course lasts one hour and you can choose to do the lessons alone or as a couple.
The class begins with a body warm-up to activate the muscles, the brain and get into "salsa mode" (or the style you want to dance). Then, depending on the level, I offer exercises to understand and learn rhythm, basic movements or more complex steps or tricks. We end with a moment of improvisation, which helps to strengthen not only knowledge of dance, but also self-confidence, communication with the partner and the ability to learn from mistakes and improvise.
It's a dynamic course, which will allow you to work on coordination, your memory, rhythm, to know your body better, to gain self-confidence and above all to have a good time!

I can give lessons in French, English or Spanish.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!

🍀 This is a class for all levels, it is centered on the pleasure of dancing and feeling your free body in motion, without judgment and by valuing our forces present in us, too often ignored.
Through a playful and personalized framework, I offer exercises from my circus and dance practice and I adapt to the needs of the person according to the time, number of sessions we have together.

🍁 My desire during these classes and to be able to bring the person a benevolent and encouraging look as well as several tools to gain self-confidence with movement, dance and your dancing body. To help him develop his own body language and discover/deepen another relationship to his body, another way of listening.
I base myself on his desires to offer him explorations, exercises, discussion times...

🌸 Whether it's just for the pleasure of dancing, or the desire to create a video with dance, or a presentation, my goal is to provide the necessary support so that the person trusts themselves and leaves with new tools. for her.
🌻Through my practice, I take into account both the physical aspect and the psychological aspect: the feeling, our experience, the insecurities or beliefs that block us, the judgment we put on ourselves.... I am convinced that all these data are linked with our relationship to the body, to the breath, to the voice and that it is important to take them into account and take care of them.

(((((🤸‍♂️I also offer courses to deepen your practice with the AERIAL HOOP but not having places and the material on me, I can only offer it to people who already have the material or a training place available! I will of course agree to move with them as far as possible :) ))))))

So, if you are looking to develop your relationship to movement and to your sensitive and dancing body, do not hesitate to contact me! My schedules often change, don't hesitate to contact me directly rather than looking at the schedule! 🌼 Availability: I am often abroad for work but do not hesitate to contact me and we will try to find suitable dates!
