The class that Masha gives makes me feel more connected to my own body. She takes us on a journey, almost like a meditation. I immediately relax and go with her on a search through the movement within my body. In Masha’s way of improvisation she pushes us to find new things, to improve our quality and softness. Softness is an important part of Masha’s goals, and she will give tasks and tools to try to find it within yourself. With her help you discover your own body and capabilities, and Masha helps you grow.

Masha’s class has helped me not only to control my movements. She teaches you an amazing method but little did I know that her classes also help you to grow mentally. The way that she makes her students feel is incredible. I feel safe in her class.

The Method by Masha Zhukova has helped me in many ways being a young opera singer, it’s a very creative and effective way to warm up and connect with our body which is our instrument. It also gives me a powerful way to communicate with my body and it helps to build different characters more easily, now I’m more aware of every step I take on stage and I can feel a huge difference in my body when I perform. I totally recommend this method, it was life changing.

Maria's teaching method was really helpful for me, allowing my body to warm up gradually without straining or pushing it before it was ready. It prepared me well for vocal training without the need for intense exercises. I also noticed improvements in my flexibility, movement, and overall stage presence. I’m very happy with the lessons and would definitely take them again.

Masha's lessons have made me more aware of my own body. During the lessons, Masha creates a safe atmosphere in which she gives various improvisation assignments to explore your own body language. She will help you on your way during this investigation. The lessons are helping me to look for my own softness in my body and to experiment with different movement qualities. Every lesson I feel like I'm making new discoveries that are helping me feel more at home in my own body.

I've been following Masha's classes for almost three years now and I've grown so much. Her classes are such a warm and safe space for dancers. For me it really started to feel like coming home; coming home in this safe space, but also in my body.

There is no judgement in her classes. You can really be your own 'scientist' researching your body and its possibilities as a dancer.

Masha really knows the dancer's body and helps you discover these new possibilities.

Through movement meditation and guided improvisation in the classes you create such a good understanding of your body that will help you in every aspect of being a dance artist. You'll be softer, more aware and safer in your movement at the end of Masha's classes.

I've always really enjoyed these classes and recommend it to anyone who wants to get to know themselves better as a dancer and have fun while doing that!

Thank you so much for this year!! I wanted to personally thank you for the energy from your class, because off your class I became a confident in improvisation and really learned alot about my body. It doesnt matter how many years/times I will take your class, I will always learn something from you❤
