Mindful movement: Embark on a transformative dance journey that celebrates your individuality and nurtures your passion for movement.
From 167.17 C$ /h
My private 1-to-1 dance lessons revolves around self-expression and bringing out the best version of yourself while embracing and accepting your natural abilities. This unique approach combines discipline and enjoyment to create an engaging and transformative learning experience. I use an integrative approach of journaling and mindful conversations mixed with movement that is both challenging and fun.
