About us
Who we are?
I am Victoria, mother of three children, I have been working in the field of education for more than 16 years and I am constantly looking for new teaching methods for kids and adults.
My passion for ballet has inspired me to open in 2014 the first ballet school in Romania for children aged 2 and upwards, which uses Montessori and Waldorf-inspired methods. Apart from acquiring ballet techniques and abilities, at the Victoria Dance Academy we are also interested in the emotional and social development of children and young people, essential for their harmonious growth.
The ambiance during classes supports the close connection between students and teacher, which stimulates children to freely and creatively express themselves, without fear of making mistakes and also helps with a healthy and durable self-esteem.
Our mission
Strongly believing that movement and physical training have an essential role in one’s life starting form early childhood, our teachers emphasize the importance of each student’s personal growth. Children and youngsters are encouraged to express themselves creatively and form a healthy self-esteem.
We offer students the possibility to develop confidence and self-esteem: with each new step, acquired technique and performance, children grow a sense of fulfilment.
We encourage children and teenagers to find what motivates them to evolve and commit on a long term to their physical education. Our dance and music tutors don’t offer rewards to maintain children’s interest.
Modern methods
The teachers at the Victoria Dance Academy use modern, fun, and interactive teaching methods. Ballet techniques are introduced by way of stories and games, purposely designed to catch their attention and stimulate their creativity. Such methods include the “fly of the swan” and the “ball’s jump”, each accompanied by music.
The approaches used by our teachers enhance self-esteem and self-confidence in students. The steps, techniques and performances offer a sense of fulfilment and satisfaction.
