Saturday 1st February and Saturday 1st March 2025 were two days full of dance at Our Dance studio! Students participated at ballet, modern dance and body barre lessons and talk with internal and external teachers. In the first appointment, dance teachers were M° Landoni, Director of Our Dance Studio, and M° Valeria Pala. The talk “Dance – the kind moviment” by Dr. Landoni, also open to the family of students, had great interest from everyone, giving attention on a theme, that of the rediscovery of positive values thanks to dance and art, which is very actual today. During the second afternoon, dance teachers were two great names in dance: M° Annalisa Masciocchi, former Dancer at “Teatro alla Scala” in Milan, and M° Massimo Leanti, International Teacher and Choreographer. M° Sofia Lonardi, ballet and wellness teacher at Our Dance Studio, gave Body Barre class for students: a workout that combines the ballet barre with toning and stretching exercises.
The closing talk of the second appointment was by Dr. Compare about the delicate topic of “Dance and Nutrition”: a psychologist and psychotherapist specialized in eating disorders but also the mother of one of the students of Our Dance Studio, Dr. Compare was able to explain the difficult world of eating disorders in the art and sports, focusing on the importance of choosing healthy environments, with right teachers able to guide each student, enhancing their skills and abilities.
The two days of workshops at Our Dance Studio allowed our students to meet outside of institutional lessons, comparing themselves with students from other realities (even from Rome!) and were an opportunity for families who – outside the weekly frenetic rhythms – found a place and a space for sharing and knowledge in and with dance.
Our Dance Studio Workshop Program: certainly, will repeat next academic year!
