Participating in Ayumi's Ballet class is one of the things that I sincerely look forward to every week. Our teacher listens, supports, encourages, and helps us to understand the choreography and most importantly, she never makes us feel guilty or uncomfortable when making mistakes, instead, she patiently teaches us the correct technique. Besides that, from a communicative perspective, she always makes valuable interactions with students, and she knows every student's name which makes us feel more comfortable and belonged in the class. We appreciate you, Ayumi <3

Ayumi is such a sweet instructor. The atmosphere in the studio is always relaxing and joyful. We laugh a lot while working on the choreography. The lessons are usually the best time of my week :) As an additional benefit I feel my body getting stronger and more flexible each week. Thank you dearest Ayumi!

I really love and recommend Ayumi's ballet course. All lessons happen in a great mood, we learn new things together and practice the previous movements as well. The beginning was not easy for me, but since the second lesson I enjoy it so much! The music and dance switch my mind off. Ayumi can explain really good, I like her metaphors and the way she corrects and helps us. Don't be afraid to try ballet, it's worth it with her!

Ayumi's ballet classes are an absolute must to join to experience the beauty of ballet with easy instructions, classical music, and beautiful movements. The classes are easy to follow and bring inspiration to know that it is possible to practice ballet professionally at all ages. Ayumi's kind and positive attitude creates a cozy atmosphere to practice ballet.

As someone who has never in her life done even one lesson of Ballet I (and someone who doesn't truly expected ballerina body type) I found the lesson led by Ayumi easy to follow. She's calm and patient teacher. The atmosphere at the studio is very friendly, inclusive and open minded. Needless to say, I'm coming back.

As a British dancer I'm trained in the RAD and "French" ballet methods, so getting to grips with the Vaganova technique that's popular in Budapest took some work. Thanks to Ayumi's precise and engaging way of teaching ballet I've been able to find the finer details of the technique in my body - her lessons feel like a ballet prescription! Ayumi's focus is on placement, and she creates a calm and open space in the studio that encourages her students to really explore and embody the classical ballet movement language, as well as emphasizing musicality, stage presence, and movement quality.

Ayumi is very experienced teacher with great attention to even small details which are really helpful. I like the structure of Ayumi's ballet classes, both online and offline. The combinations are very diverse, challenging and comfortable at the same time. If you wanna to practice ballet, to improve your balance, flexibility and be graceful I highly recommend you Ayumi's ballet classes!

Ayumi’s classes have a warm and welcoming atmosphere combined with a sense of professionalism in teaching and precision in technique. It is a place for improvement regardless of one’s experience in dance. Ayumi is kind and attentive with an exceptional understanding of her students’ needs and abilities.

Since I was able to get careful instruction through stretching, barre lessons and center lessons, I was able to enjoy at my own pace even I had a blank time. In particular, you can learn more about how to use the center of gravity and muscles. It was a fun lesson because the teacher was cheerful and helpful, as I could easily ask questions. I would love to participate again if I have the opportunity!

The last time I was at ballet class was 3 years ago, I’m blessed to be able to restart my dance study and slowly do the rehabilitation with professional dancer Ayumi after 3-years no training at all!
She has the best professional ethic among teachers I've studied with.
I started to know my body more and her encouragements help me gain more body awareness and confidence.
I learned a lot out of every class.
I wish I can study with Ayumi as long as possible and become more and more professional with my dancing study!

Ayumi is a very kind and impressive personality and also a very talented teacher. She is authentic, because she is outstanding as a dancer and artist, too. My daughter attends Ayumi’s lessons, she said that Ayumi teaches techniques and methods very accurately and patiently correct mistakes. My daughter developed a lot since she visits Ayumi’s lessons and she much more in love with ballet than any times before. She is dancing and practicing long hours just for fun.

Ayumi is a unique wonder who gives new definition for a dance. She supports kids on the ballet classes gently but definitely, giving them an example with her passionate and tireless work and practice. It was a pleasure seeing my daughter dancing at home with the same passion and freedom with the movement that was learned from Ayumi.
