TESTIMONIALS

SEMI-PRIVATE LESSONS:
 
"Don't miss out! I highly recommend Ernesta Corvino’s semi-private dance class. I attended yesterday’s session and found myself reawakened to the wonder of the Corvino ballet approach. Perhaps it was the room itself that served to inspire, since the walls were filled with pictures of the Corvino dancing family members. And Alfredo Corvino’s image was shining bright. I was “moved” to dance. Ernie delivered her typical brilliant class, with a concentrated ballet barre and mindful center work. The small class size is a real plus, since Ernesta can target individual needs, and speak to your specific questions. And boy, while I didn’t expect a “sweaty” workout, given the smaller space, I finished that class dripping wet. I worked hard, felt terrific afterwards, and had a great time! Be sure to check it out. A semi-private class is an opportunity to focus on your dance needs and -- if you stick with it - could move your technique up a notch."......Terry Conlon, solo dance artist and long-time Corvino student​
