Top-class quality, approach towards teaching, achieved results and last but not least realiability are the basic requirements that L. Ottová demands from the teachers of the studio. It is them who make the studio what it is. Parents of the children who attend classes for the smallest have their own specific expectations, ballet classes participants have other expectations, people interested in yoga, teenagers or fitness-style lovers have other expectations too. The main goal of the studio is that everyone leaves the class happy and comes back with loyalty.
