Chaylah Carruth started dancing at the age of 4. In her primary school days she went to different dance classes three times a week. In her high school years she followed the Youth Dance Training Friesland and immediately afterwards a year of preparatory training at Lucia Marthas Institute for Performing Arts. She stayed with the latter because there she moved on to higher vocational education and she followed both executive and teacher training. During this training she gave many lessons and after that time she started working at Faya Dance Centre. Chaylah is currently teaching various dance classes in Amsterdam.
Chaylah’s classes are all about fun, confidence and creativity. She believes it is important that everyone continues to develop individually and likes to play a role in this.

During my Havo I completed the preliminary training of the National Ballet Academy at the Theater School in Amsterdam. After that I studied contemporary dance at the HBO Moderne TheaterDans in Amsterdam. After graduating, I have been a professional performing dancer for over ten years, always with an urge to invent choreographies myself. In addition to making and performing, I have always enjoyed teaching. Now that I’ve fully taken the step to ‘dance teacher’, I teach classical ballet, including pointe, and modern dance to all levels and ages from 3 years old to.. infinity!
Description of class
My classes have a balanced mix of learning the required technique that is healthy for the individual body, and dance fun and self-expression in free dancing.

My name is Imke van der Willik and I am 20 years old. I started taking dance lessons at DIFF Dance Center in Zwolle when I was four. Here I went to the pre-education and I danced several competition teams. Then I was accepted on the step-up course and then the HBO of Fontys University of the Arts. At the moment I am working both as a performing dancer and as a teacher. I have been able to dance at Breakin Convention in London, RTL De Een Echte, Extrema Belgium, Koningsdag Zwolle 2016, among others. I hope to do many more great jobs in the coming years and to gain more experience in teaching.
Description of class
My class mainly consists of nice uptempo choreographies and exercises. During the lesson fun is central and I like a high energy. The kids learn the basics of street dance/hip hop and we also do a lot of collaboration. These are all aspects that I find very important when I teach.
