​

Eurhythmics builds confidence!

 

"I had the pleasure of joining Leslie Upchurch's Senior Dalcroze class offered by the Lucy Moses School at Kaufman Music Center.  Knowing nothing about Dalcroze, i was very impressed with the classes - meeting others and taking part in the exercises was a lot of fun and participation was easy.  Leslie is a great teacher - she inserted anecdotes on her experiences with this interesting method which made the classes feel informal and inviting.  Leslie even commented that I moved gracefully. I was so happy to hear this because no one had ever told me this ." Gwen
