"Clare
Guss-West's holistic approach to classical ballet seems like an idea long
overdue. Interconnecting dancers with T.S. Elliot's remark "They had
the experience, but missed the meaning", she is able to empower
dancers to the potential energy they already have that allows dance to become a
durable source of life energy rather than a dispersion of well-being. The most
common movements and steps will take on new life and meaning after
participating in her workshop and offer years of reflection and
resourcefulness. Her approach offers ways to link the latest trends in
choreographic innovation to the essence of traditional dance forms as energetic
transformations of the spirit." - Peter Lewton-Brain DO MA, President of International Association of Dance, Medicine & Science (IADMS)
