"Amazing Graham Technique Teacher Training!
These are amazing classes on the technique of Martha Graham. I studied with Patrice Moniz!
The information is structured and accurate; it's been a long time since I received so many corrections in the technique. This indicates the teacher's high professional skill of the teacher, Patrice. Even the language barrier is not a hindrance; our meetings are so accurate and associative. Thank you so much!"

"An Inspirational and creative Horton Teacher Training!
I was looking for further Horton Technique resources; MIU gave me essential teaching tools and reinforced my knowledge of the Technique to grow as a teacher. The training is intense, exigent with a nurturing approach from every teacher invited, along with P. Moniz, which allowed me to think independently to become more confident in my choices and create works rooted in solid foundations. Thank you so much for everything."
