What can I expect from a private lesson?

We will have a consulting meeting with the dancer or teacher to discuss what technique you are wanting to improve on. From there, we will design a session with exercises to target those issues. The lessons will conclude with additional variations to those exercises that can be built upon in order to strengthen their areas of concern. There can always be more than one session depending on the concerns and the progress. There will also be a check in scheduled to make sure the exercises are working the dancer towards their goals and adjusted depending on the needs of the issues.

What are the benefits from hiring D2D Dance Teacher for outside choreography?

The strongest benefit of hiring us is that we work to challenge and tailor our choreography to THE STUDENTS needs. After sending in a video of the dancers and discussing their technique levels, we will design choreography to highlight the dancers strengths. We always create movement to highlight their level and style for optimal success, while still giving them space to grow.

What to expect from a Virtual Judging Critique?

In a virtual judging critique we give written and audio commentary to a video you send to us. We give feedback on technical, performance, and spacial challenges that we believe may be hindering the score of the piece at competition. We will also include exercises to be used in the classroom to give further solutions for success and build confidence.

What can we expect from master classes with D2D?

We will have a consulting meeting with the studio director/ teachers about the technique strengths and challenges of the students being taught. From there, we will design a class or classes that center around those needs. We will create concepts and exercises designed to work on those areas of concern both in our class and moving forward. The exercises will be foundations, to building blocks, to new movements the studio can use to progress in whatever area they chose. We will also give combinations highlighting the technique used in the classes that will give the dancers the opportunity to put their hard work to the test. 

Can I hire just one of you for a master class, private, or choreography?

Yes, Absolutely!

What are the benefits to hiring both of you?

What is the difference in phases and why do they have the same exercises?

The differences in the phases are subtle changes designed to progress the dancer while solidifying the foundation of the exercise. Repetition builds confidence and muscle memory. Dancers need time not just to learn an exercise or concept but understand what it does for their body.
