Anya is looking forward sharing her experience and knowledge with other professional dancers. She looks forward to giving valuable input and observing the resulting progress. With her commitment Anya wishes to support the dancers and through the training serve as a well-founded preparation for more demanding movement sequences. In Anya’s eyes, ballet training is not only training for the body, but also stimulating the mind. Ballet offers a completely new perspective on movement.
