Dance Teaching Quotes

Yasuyuki Shuto

TIM,
You came to Tokyo Ballet Company in Europe Tour as a guest teacher in 1996.
Your class was very academic and always made us move to perform naturally. That's why we had great performances every day!

He is my best teacher!!! His eyes look at the pure and clear core of the body as it dances.
TIMOTHY gave me new and exact points and challenges every day at Architanz in Tokyo. It was really fun to feel I was improving in each and every class. It makes me so motivated.
He is very exact about placement where the legs, arms and head should be. When he corrected me in this, I looked very much better. He always answered my questions kindly.
I'm so glad to have met him. He is the teacher whom I can truly trust. Thank you very much!

I just wanted to drop you a quick line to thank you once again for having our girls at your open class on Wed 15th April. They absolutely loved the class and are still talking about it. We have integrated some of your corrections and exercises into our open class and its just fantastic !!

I had studied with TIMOTHY GORDON before as a student and then years later as a seasoned professional.
His classes are fabulous and are the definition of pure classical dance. He takes you back to the basics, where you find the roots of your technique and are then able to fix flaws that have been with you for years. His eye for details and passion for the art of dance make his classes fun but also gives you a thorough workout. Having taken classes from teachers through out the world, in my career, Tim's classes are ranked amongst the best, he is truly a world class professional. New Zealand is fortunate to have such a resource at their disposal as most of NZ talent often escapes overseas to better pay and highly reputable companies.
