Sehr guter Kurs und Lehrpersonen. Gehen indivuell auf die Teilnehmer ein. Passen das Tempo der Gruppe an. Geben viele Freiheiten, was gelernt bzw. repetiert wird.

The course given by Janice and Thilo was amazing! Very helpful explanations and they were very helpful when asked for help after the course as well.

Janice and Thilo were great and very skilled teachers. Not only do they show you new steps, they'll try to teach you the technique you need so it'll actually look better. And they have great chemistry ;-)

The teacher were highly technically skilled and explained the new figures very well. In comparison to other instructors, they focused more on the technique and less on introducing figures. I enjoyed the course a lot.
