«Dear Lucia, thank you so much for your intermezzi, it was just great! I still have sore muscles ?. I worked on it again with some of the children for 4 lessons on Thursday. Today we had a presentation and they performed the choreography without outside support. From position 2 onwards, we invented something new with what was given. They applied themselves and performed very well. We are happy! I would be happy to recommend you.»

«I heard that the workshop was really great and that the kids were motivated to take part, which made me very happy.» V.D. Teacher School in Frutigen 2024
«Dear Lucia, Thank you so much for the great workshop this afternoon. It was a lot of fun.
I have already received a message from a mother saying how happy her child came out of school. And she would like to know what piece of music was played for the dance. Can you tell me?» A.K. Teacher School Kirchbühl Cham 2023
«Lucia Baumgartner is an extremely talented person to teach dance to the children, boys and girls alike, in a palatable and exciting way. The class, which tends to be competitive and resentful, harmonised wonderfully in the dance lessons. Lucia had a motivating way of drawing out skills from each child. I will book this project again!!!»

«I think it's a great pity that I didn't get to meet you. Beat told me so many positive things, I got the impression that the children have benefited not only in the area of dance, but also for their personality development and thus for their self-esteem. Thank you for giving the class this opportunity! Something like this should be a permanent part of the timetable, like another subject.»

Have booked three dance workshops in one day. Pupils and teachers from all three classes (2nd/3rd/5th degrees) were enthusiastic!» K.M. Teacher in Schlieren, 2022
«I think your offer is really great and I was amazed at how intensively the children worked. I would welcome a short break after about 45 minutes.The offer really appealed to children in our class who are otherwise not so motivated and concentrated at work. With your positive feedback, these children were able to gain self-confidence. We have also recommended you to Cycle 1.» M.B. Teacher in Matten, 2022
«Lucía had made the workshops fair and enjoyable with all grade levels. The competence in performing and dancing were also promoted. It was fun for everyone! In addition Lucía was able to convey and strengthen important values such as self-confidence. The workshop is warmly recommended!» P.B. Teacher in Arch, 2021
«Thank you so much for your great commitment in our class! I find it fatastic, how you carry the kids away in a thrilling and motivating way.» F.M. Teacher in Bern, 2020

«A very competent choreographer, with a proposal that fits to all stages of the students, full of energy and a grand charisma. One week which inspired and made everyone outdo themselves. The students were thriving in various areas: music, coordination, social completeness and self awareness. An arts project that can be recommended any time.»
