📌It doesn't always take two for things to work...
To begin to connect, assimilate and experiment with new KNOWLEDGE, the most IMPORTANT thing is the body, the attitude, perseverance and a great pinch of confidence!
I always like to approach the codes of different dance disciplines, based on structures that work on the physical, rhythmic, and creative aspects.
There is an idea that Tango is difficult to learn, and of course if we approach it with that label, it will be that way. Starting from the main concept of tango, WALKING, something that we all do most of the time, dancing tTANGO is within everyone's reach.🤗
Another very important point is the way to assimilate and understand it 😉😅
❤️‍🔥What will the classes be like, you ask?
I'll tell you a little bit, we are going to develop the structure in the work of weight changes, the step, projection of the walk, the pivot, understanding the kinesphere individually and as a couple translated into the hug, the turns and the spiral torso to understand the momentum in various exercises, the eights so famous in tango, the basic step and universal exit, walks with the concept of lanes and much more from various sequences that familiarize you with the technical needs to be able to perform the steps without leaving aside the dynamics, pulse, accent and compas of the tango. Everything will be raised in the background in a more organic way. It's not just about learning individual steps, and then...what do we do 🧐? It is not the form that should take the leading role, but the way in which you express that form.
We will also let your creative and playful side be part of the process, through a tool that I consider very valuable, which is improvisation 👌 since it allows you to find your own style and recognize your strengths and weaknesses to continue growing in your passion for dance.
With all these tools, entering the world of more complex sequences and why not, creating your own, will be one more step and not an impossible challenge to achieve.🤩
Don't forget that the steps that are known today and a large part of the sequences emerged from a restless and creative mind, which explored synonymous with IMPROVISE❗️
Let's go through the process together and hold each other in a hug.

In addition to ballet classes and stretching, I also provide audition preparation and competition training variations.
My ballet class is typically divided into two parts: Barre and Center, which include adagio, pirouettes, and jumps. We can reserve time for pointe technique upon request as well. During classes, attention is given not only to the technical aspects of the combinations provided but also to their musicality and the logic of movements. Detailed analysis is also provided on which muscles should be engaged in each movement and what sensations the student should experience when executing the steps correctly.
It would be great if you could share a video of your class or variation performance before our first class. This will allow me to assess your level and make our lesson as productive as possible.

My schedule is flexible, so the table below may not include all possible hours for our class. Write to me and indicate your preferences. I will answer you as soon as possible!

Very soon you will see the summer offer. Believe me, it will be wonderful!

I've been teaching ballet worldwide for over 10 years. My classes are based on Vaganova method, but I mix in Pilates, anatomy and biomechanics to help you truly understand how your body moves. We focus on smart technique, not just repeating steps. Sessions last 60 to 90 minutes depending on what you need. I work with adults of all levels - it's never too late to start your ballet journey!

With 25 years in ballet, I’ve lived and breathed this art form, and I never stop learning. My stage career was an incredible journey, but I discovered that my true passion lies in teaching. I’ve mentored over 400 students worldwide who value my eye for detail, my dedication, and the positive energy I bring to every class. While I was raised in the strict Russian Ballet tradition, I believe that harshness isn't the key—discipline, trust, and a genuine desire to grow are. My goal is to help you build not just a healthier body, but the inner confidence to shine.

Walking is much more than just getting from one place to another. Your gait reveals your presence, your confidence, your energy, and communicates your femininity. Wearing heels is a way to express who you are, to assert your femininity.

A unique experience - More than a walking course

We take time for ourselves. We connect or reconnect with our femininity. We do an activity that stimulates the body and gets energy flowing. Through gentle exercises, we strengthen the abdominal muscles, back muscles, as well as the muscles of the legs and thighs.
Our approach

Awaken the expression of the feminine
Our approach is based on our vision of woman as an intrinsically beautiful, graceful, and unique being. We don't impose a way of walking. We share tools and techniques that each woman can adopt to express the full essence of who she is.

What you receive - Much more than a course
Keys & techniques
For better posture and a straight and balanced gait.

Relaxing moment
To de-stress and relax the body in order to restart better.

Moment for yourself
With oneself, within oneself. A time to reconnect with one's femininity.

Positive affirmations
To strengthen mental strength and build self-esteem.

Gentle exercises
To stimulate the body and awaken the senses through music.

Targeted reinforcement
Calves, glutes, deep abdominals — develop balance and proprioception.

Elements worked
✦
Work on flexibility and grace

✦
Posture work

✦
Muscle building

✦
Body movements and synchronization

✦
Learning to walk in various types and heights of heels

✦
Understanding and taking ownership of one's own approach

The sessions take place with music in an atmosphere conducive to learning and relaxation.
