My favourite moment of 2008 is discovering Kira Kirsch as a teacher. She offers depth and clarity in a technique class and still leaves room for personal revelation. It thrills me to find a young artist here who is investing herself in the essence of movement, and then having the boldness to teach so well.

Kira Maria Kirsch is an exceptional teacher of safe and sustainable patterns of movement.  She utilizes sound scientific principles and a thorough understanding of musculoskeletal anatomy to continuously research the most efficient, functional and non-traumatic pathways. Her curriculum is ideal for anyone interested in preventing dance related injuries. I recommend her techniques without reservation to anyone who wishes to maximize their movement and dance potential and remain free of injury.

I wanted to thank you for the few classes i was able to take with you these past weeks. the concentration on the pelvis and articulation within the hip joints was actually in perfect conjunction with the work i was focused on with a physical therapist. the combination of  intellectualizing and physicalizing movement and the time we were given to explore allowed me understand what was going on (or not going on) in my body. it is the first time i feel that i have truly been able to incorporate principles of a technique into my own improvisational movement. i thank you for the inspiration you filled me with and for opening my eyes and body to new ways.

'...This technique is  very detailed and  developed, with great respect to the individual human bodies, and has much knowledge of anatomy and physicality. Ms. Kirsch teaches and shows this technique in a very inspiring way.
I recommend Ms. Kirsch to any work relating to dance and movement.
We at HJS are looking forward to keep working with her in the future.'
