Here are some feedbacks from some of our former Summer school students:
Congratulations and thank you for your pedagogy, and for your open-mindedness, as we
perceived it: it was a cocktail of application, elegance and tenderness Parents of Margot,
11 years old.
The organisation was perfect and everybody was very professional. I learnt a lot and met
a lot of nice people. I would recommend it to everyone who wishes to become a ballet
dancer Amphitrite, 13 years old.
I was impressed by the quality of the presentation. There is high level, highly professional
work, as well as benevolent and thorough consideration from the teachers. The way they
address their students in class convey passion, will and enjoyment to hand down their
knowledge Mother of Alicia, 12 years old.
Balance is the best word I can use to describe all the aspects of this programme. All the
teachers were wise in sharing their knowledge with us and yet treating us with individual
care and pushing us to see results as if we were their own full year students. () the insight
shared in partnering class was irreplaceable. () Non dance related, everyone involved
was friendly, welcoming and truly helpful. The facility is gorgeous and the students are
privileged to a campus like that. The food was really healthy and tasty. When admitted to
an environment like that, there is an unspoken energy. The mood brought out the best in
the students. Colin, 19.
