The ballet teacher Daria Kann introduces a ballet program, which is fully adapted for children of an early age. When a young girl, she understood that her love with ballet was not just an ordinary hobby, but a dream, which she had to turn into reality.

She successfully entered the choreographic institute in Georgia when she was 10. After graduation in 1990 she began her career as a ballet dancer. But Daria did not stop at what she accomplished and continued to master her skills. Having worked in the Moscow State Academy of Choreography from 1990 to 1995, in 1998 she continued her education in the Russian Academy of Theatre Arts in Moscow.

One of the most vivid impressions in Daria’s life was her joint work with Jean-Paul Goude. It was the Lindt chocolate commercial, which was shown on the national TV. Today Daria Kann is ready to share her professional experience, and in particular she likes working with kids, as it gives an opportunity to discover their inner potential.

We are proud of this experienced and talented teacher.

While being a professional fitness trainer, I was always looking to develop myself spiritually and I studied Yoga in India, becoming Hatha Yoga Instructor for adults. 

My love to children and Yoga inspired me to become Yoga teacher for children. It was in Paris in 2021 that I trained and received my diploma. 

Working with children is happiness to me! 

I believe that is very important to initiate children into the physical and spiritual values of Yoga from the very young age. It learns not only listen to our body, but also concentrate ourselves on the feelings and senses, and hear our hearts.
