“I am moving forward gratifyingly fast with this team — they’d be a bargain at twice the price. Earthiness, presence and world-touring-grade style that meets with precision of concept, deep anatomical knowledge & real dance training.

A highly experienced, professional and absolutely delightful duo to learn from!”
