LAMONDANCERS Sharing their experiences
“Lamondance allowed me to step outside my comfort zone and challenged me creatively. Being able to work with so many different artists was very inspiring and rewarding... It opened my eyes to a whole new world of contemporary dance.”
“Lamondance season 9 was a very significant year for me. I really felt myself rediscover my love of Dance and reinvent who I am as an artist. I’ve gained a valuable toolbox from all of the teachers and guest choreographers, and I cannot wait for the opportunity to use these tools to grow even further in the season to come.”
“Going to my third year with lamondance, I could tell that it changed my life, as a professional and as a person! Every year it’s a new perspective and a new improvement for me! I love it!”
“Sharing experiencesEveryone talks about how amazing it is to work with Lamondance because it makes you an incredible professional, working with many amazing artists. And that’s true, but Lamondance is more than that, speaking from my experience: Lamondance has changed my life; it has elevated me in the field of contemporary dance. It has made me a skilled professional with a wealth of experience. It has shown me how important it is to understand others’ stories and admire how people tell their stories through their bodies. It’s hard to explain how the environment at Lamondance transforms us for the better. Today, I am a recognized teacher and choreographer in my country. I have taught classes in more than ten countries and judged at national and international festivals. With my work, I obtained the highest score at the World Ballet Competition in contemporary solo in 2022. I have had two choreographies invited to the final gala of the YAGP, and I have won the Excellence Award at Danzamerica. I always pass on everything I have learned at Lamondance. I am very grateful, and without a doubt, I know it was the best experience of my life”
“Lamondance has made me so much more confident in my dancing, as well as in my daily life. I feel so grateful to get to learn and collaborate with people from all different backgrounds. Its a truly indescribable and humbling experience.”
“Lamondance was such an amazing experience. When I started, I had no idea what I was going to get or if it was even going to be worth it. Lamon surpassed all my expectations and more. From the amazing family environment to the consistent care and training from all the teachers, to the incredible people sharing the room with me. I learnt so much as a dancer, as well as growing as a person. Learning how to cope with the many ups and downs that come with such a fast-paced environment, I learnt how to take care of myself and not let any issues stand in the way of my training, which is something you have to learn early on in the career. I am so happy that Lamon became part of my journey, and I am so looking forward to season 10.”
“The work of the company is really incredible, Lamondance is a very good program for dancers, I have no words to describe how good this work was. All the classes, workshops, shows, extras, everything was a very good demonstration of how the work of being part of a dance company is. And another thing is how incredible it was to make people from so many different places come together, this is (should be) a fantastic opportunity to experience and learn a lot, about human, about culture, and of course, professionalism. So it is very important to be a professional at all times in this place, with all people, in every single moment. For me, this was strong resistance, so this made me stronger, and I am sure I will have more breath to continue my journey in search of art and dance!”
“I had an amazing experience with Lamondance. It really pushed me to be the best the I could be as a dancer. I never worked harder and achieved so much in my dance career. I’m so happy they I got to be a part of it all.”
“It has been such a pleasure For me, two years with Lamon gave me so many experiences, good ones. I’ve been growing so much, as a dancer also as a person.”
