about Ghislain de Compreignac

Magalie

Thank you, Ghislain, for all the integrity you convey through your classes. I found all the professionalism and humility of a demanding dancer who is also humanly radiant. And I can only encourage every dancer to come and share your work...

I’ve just discovered Ghislain’s new afternoon class. Here’s a serious prof who has a great eye and infuses his classes with his love of dance and a sense of humour! The classes are demanding and very enjoyable at the same time.

The intensive workshop was a wonderful discovery, with excellent work on Martha Graham technique and invaluable advice in classes . Many thanks to the teachers for their attentiveness and valuable advice!

Mr. de Compreignac combines technical work with artistic expression. You leave having shared a genuine moment of dance, which is why I really enjoy these classes. The warm-up is effective and gives way to a dance environment that is constantly changing. The atmosphere is excellent. Everyone receives personalized corrections! These classes for anyone who wants to progress and take on a new challenge.

Mr. Ghislain de Compreignac, is a wonderful example of a teacher who is commited, passionate and eager to make connections for the dancers. His classes are not only challenging but enjoyable and technically WONDERFUL! His positive energy coupled with his desire to help you be the best you can be, makes him a unique teacher.

Having literally stumbled upon Mr. Ghislain’s class, I am so happy. His ballet class is one that I will miss!!! Also, as a foreigner, he spoke English in class for me, took time to get to know my dancer side, and invested his time, energy, knowledge and grace into me, although he knew I was only going to be with him for 10 days. Not many teachers or people would go this far and help you feel included and connected. Thank you!
I recommend his ballet class and Mrs. Maggie Boogaart’s Graham class!!!!! Two of the best teachers I have encountered- but be ready to work and activate new muscles. 🙂

Ghislain, with his simplicity and naturalness, allows everyone to find their place and "their nourishment" within his classes.

What a wonderful class! I was visiting Paris for a few days and am so glad I found Ghislain. His class was great fun, but also challenging. I loved the combinations and my body felt great afterwards. Ghislain is a very attentive teacher, has a great eye for detail. I am inspired by his energy, enthusiasm and professionalism.

Cheryl

While over on a visit to Paris from the US I decided to try Ghislain’s class. It was a wonderful experience. The class is structured so that the body is warmed up properly before going into quicker more advanced exercises, and then combinations in the center. His corrections are very helpful. If French isn’t your first language, don’t worry. He can easily switch from English to French. I will definitely take his class next time I am in Paris. I met Maggie Boogaart, and am looking forward to trying her floor barre class next time as well.

Mallory

I so enjoyed Ghislain’s class. It was fun and difficult all at the same time. He’s a very positive, attentive teacher. For someone who is just starting to learn French it was great to receive corrections in English from Ghislain. The class flowed nicely and I can’t wait to take another.

Constance

First classes the inspiring Ghislain! The atmosphere is relaxed, making the physical work all the more enjoyable!

Lucie

classes , precise and effective corrections, interesting speed work, and above all, thank you for going beyond technique to teach us how to be artists and work with rhythm and music (and in good spirits too!). I have discovered a new way of approaching dance!

Aude-Marie
