DANCE SMART - Key Persons
Yoni Zaluski is a movement education specialist. He has been working with athletes, dancers, musicians and others who seek to improve their performance and skills. Yoni has been an active athlete and was a professional engineer. Over the years he became fascinated by the process of learning new motor skills and improving existing ones. He has discovered that the key for improvement is to increase self-awareness. He went on to pursue a new career and became a certified Feldenkrais® practitioner. Combining the two worlds - sport techniques and Feldenkrais® based movement education - resulted in the creation of the Whole Body Golf program for golfers of all levels and ages. During this period of time Yoni also became a certified golf instructor.
Bringing their mutual interest in teaching sports by increased awareness, Anne-Lore and Yoni have joined forces in creating the dance smart program to improve dance skills and performance. The program is based on the same philosophy of supporting sport technique by movement education.
Yoni maintains a practice in Denver, Colorado, where he works with golfers and disabled golfers, people with chronic pain, stroke or other head injuries, musicians and dancers. Yoni travels frequently to Europe and teaches dance couples and individuals together with Anne-Lore.
