Marisa has 34 years experience in the dance world, including 11 years as a dancer with Les Grands Ballets. Whether front and center, taking or giving classes or conducting a rehearsal, or behind the scenes as an assistant to the Artistic Director, she knows all the secrets of Les Grands. Naturally, at Les Studios, she's like a fish in water! Her philosophy? It is not your body that must adapt to the technique, but rather the technique that must adapt to your body.
On anything, even words. All the time!
Always in a smooth way, even when it's fast.
With a good laugh!
A Quebecer of Argentinian origin, Marisa studied at the École supérieure de ballet du Québec. She completed her training at the Rosella Hightower Cannes Dance School in France (formerly known as the Rosella Hightower International Dance Center). When she left the stage in 2010, Marisa completed a 6-month training course in tango in Buenos Aires, Argentina, thanks to the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec.
