What people say.....

Some comments from audiences, students and peers.

Just wanted to say how much I loved your performance last night at the Raks Festival. I know everyone says it to you, but I thought I would say it too. You are different from other professionals in the way that your dancing keeps on getting more and more amazing (even when I thought this was impossible as you are already brilliant), to the point of it looking totally effortless when you are dancing. Maybe this is the result of natural talent, hard work and continuous learning, whatever it is, it's very inspiring :)

- Tayo Adepoyibi, Brisbane

Jrisi also made her first visit to Perth in December - why had she taken so long? Those of you in the Eastern States are more familiar with Jrisi's energetic style of teaching and it was like a breath of fresh air and a bit of a shock to the system for us in the west.

Her teaching style is consice, structured and easy to follow and the choreographies were kept simple enough to follow yet challenging enough to keep us on our toes. Jrisi has a wonderful personality and teaching style and manages to maintain a high level of energy with her students. This is a sign of an experienced and committed teacher. Hopefully this will not be her last visit as we want more, more!

Jrisi's workshop in Perth - the most stimulating classes i've attended all year.
