Seit 2012 arbeiten Elena Sapega und Daniela Niemietz, intensiv zusammen. Nach zahlreichen erfolgreich absolvierten gemeinsamen Projekten beschlossen wir im Sommer 2016 eine eigene Tanzschule zu gründen. Unser Ziel ist es, aus unseren individuellen und gemeinsamen Erfahrungsschätzen zu schöpfen und unseren Schüler_innen damit die bestmögliche Qualität im Schulbetrieb zu bieten.

Zoe Jakes has been belly dancing for 20 years, and brings a playfulness and ease into the classroom that makes training fun! She desires to create an inclusive environment so all humans can enjoy the art of Bellydance, and hopes that everyone can experience the grace and fluidity that comes with training in this form. Zoe’s signature style of dance incorporates pop and lock isolations, elements of classical Indian dance, jazz footwork, and modern lines, with lots of folk Bellydance inspiration. Zoe Jakes is a founding member of Beats Antique and composes music for them as well as dances. She is known around the world for her unique stylistic take on belly dance, and is also an accomplished teacher, sharing her knowledge with the next generation. A versatile and extremely well-rounded performer, Zoe Jakes has developed an instruction style all her own and is a popular touring instructor, her workshops regularly selling out. In 2015 Zoe launched her own tribal fusion belly dance format, DanceCraft™. The purpose of this accredited dance program is to provide a structure in which dancers can progress towards an achievable goal and provide an opportunity to build a dancer's skills intelligently and clearly. This format applies strong technical training as a framework for artistry and creative expression. DanceCraft focuses on dance technique, strength and flexibility, musicality, choreography, improvisation, critical thinking, stamina, analysis, teamwork, belly dance history, teaching, and creating original work.
