I had a good friend give me a gift of a free month. A lot of content and just the right amount of focus and guidance that I was ready for. I happily subscribed monthly after the free month. :)

Great courses!

I am honestly very happy with Ksenia's courses! I just finished Solo Jazz 101 and it was an amazing experience! She explained everything very well and clear and it made it easy for me to understand the music as well! She teaches with pleasure and energy and I liked the constant encouragement to try out new stuff and to not be afraid of just dancing, if that makes sense and to find my own style!
The video quality is really good, sound as well!
I have not experienced anything bothering so far!
I would recommend it to anyone, really, begginer, intermediate or advanced! I am looking forward to taking the next courses!

It's no secret

It's no secret, Ksenia's solo jazz courses are simply the best - short and sweet, to the point and very accessible. The videos are presented in a highly professional, yet friendly and challenging manner. "T'aint what you do (tis the way that you do it)". That sums it all up. I can highly recommend these online classes to all who want to get to grips with authentic jazz dance and progress at their own pace.

Great to start with solo jazz. The classes are short and clear and I enjoy them! Finally a place were I can learn this, wanted to start with this already for many years.

I really loved the site

I really loved the site. I would strongly recommend you to sign up for the premium content as the Monthly feedback you get from Ksenia is absolutly amazing and helpful.
The courses content are very clear and well organized and you can follow along with her guidance which help a lot to correct the movements.
You will find powerful tools to learn improvisation as well and lots of variants so you can start exploring and defining your own style.

More than I expected, great blend of technique and musicality

The quality of the videos is outstanding, great visuals, audio and content. As a musician that has never danced anything before Lindy and Solo Jazz I chose this course to get a technical but very musical approach of the dance. It was more than I expected, you can really tell Ksenia has poured all of her knowledge and experience into the courses.

Secret of Solo is truly the best dance course…

Secret of Solo is truly the best dance course! Ksenia is an incredible teacher, she is clear and makes the classes very fun and enjoyable. Her lessons are precious and inspire to practice steps, variations and body movement. She knows to explains how to use your body and how to hear the music. I have very much enjoyed my first month with Secret of Solo.

If you want inspiration, you have to take the Ksenia classes!

The online school is incredible, because she is incredible! I am not a dancer, but I love to dance. For a long time I wanted to learn swing and solo jazz. Her school allows it from the most basic to the mostcomplex, it is excellent! Her classes are clear, the courses are very well ordered and you also have extra info on many topics (history, technical advices).
Step by step you discover a magical world full of movement, expressiveness, music, even singing!
Thanks to her I have felt like dancing again!!

New inspiration for dancing

Ksenia's Secret of Solo online courses are wonderful! I like how the classes are structured. There are short separate videos of technicality of steps, separate practice time to music, putting steps together into short sequences and some improvisation. Ksenia is very clear in her instructions and makes the classes very enjoyable with her energy and excitement of dancing. I have very much enjoyed my month with Secret of Solo and will definitely go back for more. She has inspired me to keep on practising everyday, even if it is just 10 min.

I love the Online School

I love the Online School, you can do the courser whenever you want, view and review them. there is a lot of material. The only thing I miss (but you can search for the live lessons and you'll find it) is a section of warming up, because I love Ksenia's warming up, they are so funny and complete!! Anyway, the platform is great, also the assistance!

Ksenia's online class is THE BEST

Ksenia's online class is THE BEST! She's an incredible teacher: clear, fun, great at breaking down steps and articulating exactly what to do with your body, Plus, she helps you really hear the music. I had an unexpected bonus too: my foot pain (plantar fasciitis pain - of nearly a decade!) is seemingly gone. I think it must be from using different lower leg and foot muscles than I have in the past. I can walk barefoot on wood floors with no pain - even first thing in the morning. My feet, legs, heart and mind all love her teaching methods! Sign up! It's FUN!

I will be a member forever

I will be a member forever. Ksenia is truly the best dance teacher I've ever had. I've learned so much and I can feel in my dancing how my musicality is improving. I've also learned a lot more about jazz music and have been inspired by Ksenia to read several books about jazz and jazz history. This is such a fun learning adventure with Ksenia. I never want to stop being her student.

seems like forever..

seems like forever..
that i´ve been dancing with you, and it´s only a month now!

to be honest, i wanted to bridge the gap until the lockdown is lifted and my group classes resume. a few minutes into your course, though, it was obvious that this is no substitute, it´s a miracle!!

the combination of your sophisticated teaching skills (precise, vivid and funny), your incredible musicality (in dancing AND singing and conveying your feeling for the rhythms we use) - plus the structure of the course is all i could ever wish for. i like your general suggestions for a regular practice, too - and it is SO! easy to come back to the course every day!!

so much fun and i love everything about secrets of solo, from the organizational framework to the tiniest little detail in a camel walk **
thanx a million and keep swingin` !

Wonderful classes for students and teachers!

I’ve been studying and teaching Lindy Hop for a few years, and I like to incorporate solo jazz in routines. I’m delighted to be learning more solo jazz steps—especially now that we’re sheltering in place! I love these classes, which explain and demonstrate steps clearly and thoroughly! I use the classes to improve my dancing and to help me become a more effective teacher.

It is so much more than a dance class!

Ksenia is an amazing teacher and dancer. The classes do are challenging, but they really worth it. She is very enthusiastic, joyful and extremely precise. Also, she is very encouraging and benevolent. What I really appreciate is that Ksenia is not teaching you just how to dance. She shows you how to express yourself, how to blend dance with the music, intuition, and fun. She is really passionate about it, and her enthusiasm is communicative! The classes are very organized, step by step each with "that little detail" that makes you feel you not only know the step, but own it. Thank you a lot.

The best online course so far!

As a dance teacher (International Ballroom) I can only recommend Ksenia’s online course! It is well structured, following a consistent methodology suitable for both beginners and advanced dancers. The cherry on top is that Ksenia’s positive vibes are contagious and will definitely brighten your day!
