About Me
Translated using Google Translate. Click to view original.
Dancer and dance teacher in Toulouse at Âm Métis, a dance school she created, Valérie has been teaching dance with passion for more than 10 years. Having grown up in Niger and Ivory Coast, then lived in France, Senegal and Mali, her dance career is mixed.Education
Translated using Google Translate. Click to view original.
Trained in classical, modern-jazz and hip-hop dances from childhood, she discovered contemporary dance and African dances in Paris and deepened them for nearly 3 years with the National Ballets of Senegal and Mali, as well as in the villages of the Lebou and Khassonké ethnic groups.Valérie encountered Cuban and Afro-Cuban dances with Gregorio Hernandez, known as "El Goyo", founding member of the Conjunto Folclorico Nacional de Cuba, and later developed them with Yeni Molinet, dancer of the Conjunto Folclorico Nacional de Cuba, as well as in numerous masterclasses.
Music being for her inseparable from dance in order to experience and understand it, she also learned to play certain instruments related to the dances she practised: classical and jazz piano, congas, sabar, and dundun (Cuban and African percussion).
Experience / Qualifications

But what drives her above all is to create bridges between cultures, through dance.

INTENSIVE PRIVATE LATIN DANCE LESSONS (SALSA, BACHATA MERENGUE, CHACHA, CARIBBEAN ZOUK, KUDURU-AFRICAN DANCE, BRAZILIAN ZOUK)
Private lessons / intensive training in Latin Dances (Cuban Salsa, Salsa Porto / LA, Bachata, Merengue, Chacha, West Indian Zouk, Kuduru-African dance, Brazilian Zouk*)
(* = it's THE dance of the moment that paradoxically has nothing zouk or anything Brazilian - today it's pop music for two, mixing creativity, sensuality, air fluidity that plays a lot with the movements of bust, head and body undulations.)
METHODOLOGY
Learn dance and let talk about your body / emotions, make the difference in the evening ("social dancing") or prepare an event (wedding for example): Focused on pedagogy, technique and pleasure, the dance space offers personalized and individualized courses of Salsa (porto on 1, Cuban), Bachata, Merengue, Kuduru-African dance, Zouk Antillais, Zouk Brazilian (pop music) (...) according to your desires.
Objective: to adapt to your request and your desire. In the eyes of many neophytes, a couple who dance well performs spectacular figures. To dance is to tell / live together a story, to produce beauty in movement and to make the steps, the attitudes and the connections between the various actions aesthetic / harmonious. This fluidity is born of emotion, felt and transmitted.
Simplicity, communication, listening, sharing, emotion, valorization of the other: it is, in addition to technical knowledge (body expression, rhythmic, visual), what you will improve during this training at evolutive levels. In a friendly atmosphere, you will be taken in hand whatever your initial level. Objective: a combination between on the one hand, intuition / feeling / improvisation and on the other hand, technique. It is possible to take the course in couple or solo.
According to your desire, it is possible to propose 70% of a 1st dance, 30% of another complementary dance, the bases of the one influencing the other.
Whether you're preparing "choreography" for a special event (wedding, birthday, work, etc.), a show, or just looking to improve your skills to impress on the dance floor, the end learning of these classes is to :
* perform a beautiful interpretation of the music with appropriate movements, in addition to performing a dynamic work that involves a footwork and body movements adapted
* execute an appropriate technique that will allow you to shine quickly on the dance floor, relying on the strong point of private lessons
* Set up style, movement, footwork, and adjusted body coordination, allowing for rapid dance progression, while taking advanced base steps and a variety of movements, allowing you to not only acquire a sensual style but also to improve his own improvisational abilities, focusing on the characteristics of modern dance.
* work on your balance, your musicality, your body strength (...), while having fun, while you train and radically improve your body coordination.
In summary, these courses are at the beginner level (basic steps with some general variations), intermediate (faster speed and more concentration on technique, body mechanics, control, footwork, posture, balance and more complex movements) or advanced (for slightly more experienced dancers).
Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions *. (* study 2020)
To respond to requests received, it is indeed possible to offer this course (birthday, party, christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

Neoclassical dance and stretching class with Martina
A neoclassical dance and stretching class is a one hour long workout which connects you to your body, mind and soul on a deep level. It creates joy in the people thanks to the contemporary dance movements performed and also builds strength and tone thanks to the ballet movements performed. The stretching is also a good component of the class and it leaves the student more flexible and proud of his/her own body.
The class is adaptable for every person and level.
