March Matness 2021

Whew! That’s a wrap on March Matness 2021!!! It has been fun and much more time consuming than I thought. 😅 In years past, I would just record one or two exercises a day from my phone and post from there. This year, I decided to record all 34 exercises in one shot and then edit them for Instagram and my Vimeo page. I also recorded modifications and preparations for the exercises for my Instagram stories and for my Vimeo page. I didn’t know what I was getting myself into!

But it was a learning experience in many ways (like….I’ve gotta memorize the order and work on those transitions!). And this has inspired me to do the 34 exercises at least three times a week. You can follow me at on Instagram @santostechnique to see if I’m keeping my promise! I really hope I keep it up because I’m already looking forward to next year’s March Matness to see how my 34 exercises evolve! See you on the mat…

PHYSICAL STUDIO CLOSED FOR GROUP CLASSES

We at Cadance and Universal Dance Studio had worked so hard to bring back our in-studio classes in the safest and most secure way possible. We all followed the rules about distancing, wearing masks, and washing our hands. And yet, here we are, enduring the extension of another closure of the studio.

With Montreal’s red zone designation, I am not allowed to teach group classes. I was so happy that, after three weeks of teaching at the studio in September, I was finally getting into the groove of teaching the hybrid classes and that you were all along for that ride. Thank you for sticking with me!

VIRTUAL CLASSES
Registration for virtual classes (via Google Meet) remains the same on the website. I hope you’ll join me online – let’s keep the momentum we’ve started to build up and keep moving!

I hope to see you again in person whenever the Quebec government gives us the green light. I will be keeping my fingers crossed!

testimonials

Really enjoy Rachel’s classes – she is really patient and a great teacher! I had ZERO dance experience so was a little nervous about starting out but there was no need to be!

Saraid

Rachel is a very caring and observant teacher, especially with this “older” pupil. She is meticulous, never hesitating to correct each position with great delicacy to ensure the most effective exercise. She provides clear explanations that help to understand the how and why of the exercises and ensure progress. She displays a thorough knowledge of the body and movement. The classes I have taken with her have been very effective and most enjoyable.
