I provide elite, high-precision private ballet coaching based on the authentic Vaganova method, specifically tailored for children, pre-professional students, and dedicated adults. My lessons emphasize pristine classical technique, anatomical alignment (placement and turn-out), musicality, and injury-free artistic development.
For competitive dancers and pre-professionals, each session is meticulously structured to accelerate growth, specializing in YAGP/competition variation polishing, international audition video direction, and summer intensive preparation. Whether aiming for local excellence or global ballet boarding schools, each curriculum is strategically designed around the student's unique long-term goals.
To ensure a seamless and culturally supportive environment for international families, lessons can be fluidly conducted in English, Japanese, or Korean. Coaching is available via private studio rental sessions across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Bergen County (NJ), as well as globally through specialized online video consultations.
