Laurie's Story in Dance

Laurie Danced since a young age of 3 - Dancing was not just a hobby but a place of freedom and expression.

After being in the dance fraternity as a professional dancer. Laurie found she enjoyed teaching more, as it was a position in which she found she met young children with the same love and passion for dance and just wanted to learn and were quite impressionable.

Laurie teaches because she finds she is with a group of newbies to the dance world that have not lost the true essence of dance and this is what Laurie instills onto her students.

"If left on your own in your room and you wanted to not just dance but dance as a Professional, you would need to know Science of Movement" - this is the angle that Laurie teaches from.

The Science of Turning, The Science of Force and creating force with the body in order to Jump, to do Acrobatic Tumbling.

The Science of Correct Movement Mechanics to create long, beautiful lines with the body but with activation of correct muscles groups in order to do it effortlessly and in order to add more movement to it such as a Jump or a turn, and to be equipped in how to hold your body.

This just scratches the first layer of Laurie's Dance teaching style because with all the Science of Dance and Movement which is education for your child, the True Essence of Dance will always and utmostly be a place where

Freedom of Expression is found.

A place where kids learn Confidence in acquiring new skills.

A place where kids learn how to work best with their body and its limitations.

Example some kids are less flexible but have such natural strength and power in their moves.

A place where Faith is born because the Unseen, Dreams and Visions of what a child wants to accomplish becomes a reality.
