“My daughter has been going to Piri Ballet for 3 years now, and she loves it! She loves her teacher, she loves the performances and the opportunity to get a glimpse into what it is like to be a real ballerina. It has helped build her confidence and be more conscious about good body posture and strength.”

 

 
 
 

Our Founder

Piri Ballet was founded in the Summer of 2017 by Piri in Nyon. It originally started as a Summer course but turned into a year round program because of its high demand. 

Piri trained as a professional dancer in Budapest at the Hungarian National dance Academy and the Arts Educational School in Tring, England. She has loved the benefits that classical ballet has given her  such as better posture, musicality, the abilty to quickly learn new dance styles or different sports because of strong body control and so forth. On the other hand, she has found that there are many flaws in most classical ballet classes. The demand of a certain body type and the constant focus on flaws, has a negative effect on most dancers not only in the classroom but throughout their lives. Ballet dancers tend to be very hard on themselves, and most struggle with eating disorders and body dismorphia. 

Through Piri's university studies in child development, and through personal experience, Piri has found that positive reinforcement is much more effective than negative. When the teacher focuses on what the student does well, there is greater improvement than when the teacher focuses on what is wrong. Also, positive humor helps students to better remember feedback.  

Piri has founded and is motivated to expand this school because she wants children to have a positive experience when it comes to dancing. Overly strict, harsh and negative ballet classes should be a thing of the past.

 

All teachers at Piri Ballet have had a similar experience in their dance training concerning constant negativity and body type focus, and they are all very motivated to give their students a better experience than what they had. 

 

Dance can greatly enrich ones life physically, mentally and emotionally and everyone should have part of the joy that dancing can bring.
