OVERVIEW

Rooted in the Russian ballet style, the Vaganova Method, Masha's ballet classes emphasize proper alignment, clarity of movement, and musical expression.

We begin at the barre to establish fundamentals, stability, and coordination. Working through pliés, tendus, and up to grand battements, the barre acts as a foundation for all center work. The center portion of class begins to incorporate more complex and traveling movements that expand artistry and spatial awareness. Center work is where we build confidence and expression of ourselves.

For advanced students, Masha also offer pointe training, emphasizing strength, safety, and artistry.

Masha's approach is slow, detailed, and deeply attentive — she focuses on refining each client’s understanding of proper ballet technique and its tradition. Masha takes deep care in emphasizing the expression of the upper body as the true catalyst for dance.

Dance begins with the heart and the mind, and then the legs and feet follow.
