Zuza’s ability to almost magically bring people to a sense of community is stunning. This is belonging that does not require a sacrifice of individuality but makes space for each person to be safe and to shine.

- Barbara BROWN – SCHOOL PRINCIPAL

The dance is my refuge– the inner temple as an eternal sanctuary always to return to. The more comfortable I feel in the solo dance the more alive I am with others.
I feel as if when I am facing the unknown in my life there is a force I can depend on.

- Isa

The aliveness I experience on Zuza’s dance floor gives me such a sense of my personal creativity that I am empowered in all aspects of my life. The drama in my life has decreased because, when it arises, I skip, leap and spiral over and around it.

- Barbara Brannon – Artist Rep

The practice has allowed me to be more present in my work and at home. I’ve learned to observe more and speak less in relationship with my teenagers. I drop into the moment and feel my body which allows me to respond, rather than react.

- Elizabeth Crowley – Advanced Bodyworker, Movement Teacher, Mom

Zuza creates a magic space for the participants which is rooted in her big heart and seems to expand endlessly into the open sky! She is a truly trustworthy leader who is walking (dancing) her talk.

- Romana Tripolt (psychologist, psychotherapist, 5rhythm teacher
