Professors reviews!

Quality teachers passionate about their art and equipped with essential knowledge to develop their dance techniques and the profession (life) of a dancer. But not only ... it is also a training where you also learn how to listen to yourself, anchor yourself, love yourself and love others through sharing. Thank you to Annabelle for the love and the investment and that she devotes to it in order to allow the participants to have the tools to achieve their dream.
Laëtycia Vumuka Professeur de Lady Styling & COACH sportif★★★★★
A great experience. A nice welcome. A beautiful person (Annabelle). Magnificent encounters (the participants). A beautiful energy. A great level. Honestly, it was a crazy experience. The level of the girls was brilliant and professional. The organization was tip-top: emails, calls, dates, places, times, speakers. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share my knowledge, my professionalism, my energy, my smile. I was able to participate 3 times, each time we go up a level, it always becomes more professional and there are always more participants. I hope the rise of Da Fonte Academy continues higher and higher. I wish him only success and to continue in this beautiful energy.

The Da Fonte Academy is quality in organization, management, supervision and teaching. Professionalism in a caring atmosphere. Annabelle carries within her a luminous energy that she transmits in her Academy and in all her projects.

I had a lot of fun teaching yoga at Da Fonte Academy. The atmosphere is benevolent and dynamic, the people present are there to learn, enrich themselves and become a better version of themselves. Annabelle guides the students from one class to another with passion, lightness and her touch of humor that we love! All the ingredients are present, an event not to be missed.

Working as a nutritionist at Da Fonte Academy was not only an amazing but also a rewarding experience. Whether on the part of the teaching team or the dancers, energy and passion are at the heart of each of the Academy's workshops. I will undoubtedly continue to accompany Annabelle and her dancers in the various artistic projects to come.

Students reviews!

For me, the Da Fonte Academy is a workshop combining work, passion, pleasure, diversity and respect. And it is for these values and this spirit that I always have this desire to come back and discover other styles, while working on the basics in the "known" styles. Moreover, the benevolence present during these few days makes that one can advance and progress without judgment. Annabelle being passionate and touching, she takes us into her little world with a lot of respect, and that makes us feel good. Finally, a strong point of the Da Fonte Academy is its complete side. It allows you to discover not only several dance styles, but also to learn a lot more about what revolves around this art, which includes what you should know as a dancer. This professional side also attracted me. So I have only one thing to say... Thank you Annabelle !
LEA JEAMBRUN★★★★★
Annabelle is a beautiful inspiration. Bravo for all that it brings to others. I am very happy to have met her. In her dance and her classes she shares with the human being and that's not all the time with other artists or teachers! I wanted to share it, thank you for introducing me to Waacking!

I had the chance to participate in one of the 2022 editions of La Da Fonte Academy. For me it is a golden opportunity to discover dancers from various universes with a real sense of pedagogy. It's being able to have fun, learn and share in a professional and friendly setting at the same time. It's meeting other dance enthusiasts and it's evolving together! Thank you very much to Annabelle for her work, her energy and her commitment to offer quality courses in Switzerland. ❤️

Annabelle a bright and caring person who allows us to surpass ourselves and enrich ourselves!
LEA B★★★★★
Generous welcome with bottled water and other little surprises. Annabelle offers us a full day with various wellness activities, beauty sports and above all dance. With different professionals, complete explanations of the proposed areas. Although it's technical, there is one highlight that we all have in common: sharing and passion. Annabelle is a solar person in her person and her art! Spending a day with her is a breath of fresh air! Thanks!

Annabelle has a great energy! I was able to take my first Waacking lesson with her and I loved it!
JESSICA★★★★★
I never did a lot of dancing but starting the workshops gave me a self-confidence that has only grown since then, and I notice a clear improvement in my dancing. Lots of discoveries of new styles that I wouldn't have gone on my own, only good vibes and kindness 🍀 most of the meetings have become friends and I'm really grateful to have met Annabelle and to benefit from her network and his good experiences, I highly recommend !! 💃🏻♥️
ELISABETH★★★★★
Since its first edition, I regularly follow the workshops that Annabelle offers through the Da Fonte Academy. Always in benevolence, these are moments that allow me to see different styles and enrich my dance. Beyond that, each teacher has his story and brings us human values. Thank you for all these experiences.
