Davit
Anchor - Germany/Ballet Master
"Deep below the shimmering surface lies a vast reservoir of awareness, sometimes forgotten, but always there." Tamara Levitt
I briefly took ballet lessons when I was young. At the time, I neither had the interest nor the talent to continue. It takes too much time and dedication and for sure I will never be Margot Fonteyn. I left ballet and never looked back until recently when I met Davit. I joined his ballet class with a family of nine from France and it was an exhilarating experience.
I was impressed with Davit's user- friendly techniques and how all nine of us ranging from ages 10 to 50+ were able to enjoy the 2 hour session and danced together. It was an eye opening experience and completely changed my perception of the sport.
I am convinced that ballet is not solely for the young but a great workout for the mature adults as well. It doesn't have to be rigorous and can hugely improve our balance, posture and core.
