Lise la Cour’s LaCademy

How exciting! Ms. la Cour has increased her teaching from 4 days a week to 5+. My daughter had taken some group classes in the past due to limited studio hours for private lessons. Now there are more hours available, and a consistent group of kids taking the group classes.
It’s wonderful for my daughter as she is able to train 4 – 5 days a week with her favorite ballet teacher. This is a blessing, as it was so rare to get a class with her in the past school my daughter attended where Lise la Cour was the School Director for 10 years. Now she has her every time.
The improvement my daughter is making is above and beyond what she was able to do in the past. I believe there are two reasons, 1) Ms. la Cour, 2) the very small size of the class allows for more dancing and more corrections.
Classes are geared toward the serious ballet student who excels in and is committed to dance. 8 years and older with a strong foundation in ballet technique.
Boys prefer to train with Ms. la Cour, as she is one of the rare teachers in Silicon Valley who can train and choreograph using the Bournonville technique.
There are families that drive from over an hour away so their kids can train under Ms. la Cour. I think this is an amazing opportunity for kids to take a class with an incredible teacher. Her classes are filling up, and soon she will not be able to accommodate all the students. I anticipate she will become much more selective in the coming year on who can attend classes. But for now… drop ins are welcome! Come check it out and see for yourself!
