Dance Space - Françoise Jandey

At Dance Space - Françoise Jandey, a dance school in Besançon, directed by Françoise JANDEY, the focus is not only on dance but also on the body. The atmosphere is friendly, warm, and familial. The attention to the body is precise, respecting tradition while embracing changes and advancements in body techniques. Inspired by Matt MATTOX and the Mézières Method, Françoise JANDEY also draws from the Feldenkrais Method, Vittoz, Dalcroze, and Montessori for psychology with children - all vital techniques that have influenced her life. For Françoise, dance is an ART, but also a therapy, a self-discovery journey, a way to be aware of one's personal space and that of others.

Françoise believes that dance is a discipline that not only teaches but also self-disciplines. It requires rigor, regularity, will, consciousness, energy, patience, and other qualities. Françoise dedicatedly imparts these qualities, regardless of the technique or age. At Dance Space, it is a stress-free zone that promotes relaxation, openness to others, and dancing freely with quality movement and body respect. The courses are carried out with tranquility, quality, taste for effort, relaxation, humor, breathing techniques, and more elements to enhance well-being and balance in everyone's life.

In addition to dance classes, Dance Space now offers various parent-child workshops focusing on exchange, well-being, contact dance, and family cohesion. From children's dance classes for ages 3-10, including dance awakening and initiation, to improvisation workshops, Dance Space caters to a diverse range of students. By catering to various dance techniques and age groups, the school aims to provide an inclusive environment where everyone can explore dance as an art form and a form of self-expression.
