Leyla Jouvana and Roland!

I just went a 2-day workshop with these two and I have to say it was the best workshop I've ever been to!
Leyla is a great teacher and a true performer. She gives kind, good feedback and paced all four workshops very well. My brain was so full after the workshop and I came away with so many new ideas and thoughts about dancing. She really knows her stuff and so does Roland. He is a machine- he played for hours and hours and was so steady and great.
I've seen Leyla perform once on an IAMED video, but she was so incredible live. She has great facial expressions, thoughtful but fun choreographies, and survives well under pressure- she had 2 separate wardobe/prop issues (nothing to do with technique though) and music that died midway through and she barely batted an eyelash.
I'm at an intermediate level of dance and her workshop was great for me- she tought more subtle nuances and clarified problems that I have been having. It was just fabulous. So anyone who has a chance to study with her (and Roland) should definitely sign up!
