Classical Ballet
a clear language

Elizabeth Corbett, who was a principal soloist of the Ballet Frankfurt with William Forsythe for more than a decade will give special emphasis to alignment and musicality. Her teaching style is classical in the true sense of the word, as she conveys the classical movement vocabulary with great clarity. With regard to technical abilities, discipline and continuity, she focuses on clear body and spatial directions, rhythm and flow in movement, and clear focus and presence, as well as the understanding of anatomy as a prerequisite for respecting our own bodies. She's inspired by teachers who have strongly affected her learning process and her dancing; Marjorie Mussman and Maggie Black.
