Resonance Children and Teenagers:
«I didn't know what I could with my body and it was a lot of fun.» pupil, Mettmenstetten 2021
«You're funny, you understand humor but you're still strict. That's perfect!» Amanda 2018
«We sweated and laughed together. I'm amazed at how you taught us these choreographies!» Samira, Latterbach 2018
«I imagined dancing to be very different, but it was extremely cool until the end. You were always strict with us during training, but still nice.» Fabio, Latterbach 2018
«A woman in the audience said: If I hadn't come, I would have missed out.» Leandra 2018
«I've made great progress in not always taking the wrong foot. My highlight was the chorus, because that's what I do best. But my favorite part was the lifts. I got a lot of positive feedback about the performance.» Aina 2018
Resonance Teachers:
«I was impressed by the ‘dancing mobile phone’ unit because it is extremely creative and in tune with the times. It combines many valuable pedagogical features and showed me as a learner how engaging and contemporary movement units can be designed.» h.G., teacher 2025
«Thank you very much for the documents and the music. Yesterday's course gave me lots of ideas for implementing with the class. I'm really looking forward to putting these into practice. Thank you very much for the varied and practice-oriented course.» B.E. Primary School teacher Ziegelried 2025
«Super course management! - Clearly structured - logically organised - varied - 2 lessons full of action, fast and efficient - cool final result!» A.K. teacher, Hombrechtikon 2025
«Was great fun and extremely inspiring.»
«I have two left feet when dancing. Not today! :-)»
«It was very funny and uninhibited!»
«Super varied, refreshing and motivating. thank you.»
«It was nice to see how the atmosphere became more and more relaxed.» Teachers in formation, PHBern 2024
«What a huge job! I was very impressed by how calmly and thoughtfully you went about filming. And the result is impressive. I'm sure the children will love the movie and be very proud of it.» M.C. Teacher Thun 2024
«With your verve, your pep, your flair for dancing and your manner, you breathed life into our school building in a completely different way. Thank you for your clarity, flexibility, patience, variety of ideas and pedagogical skills. During this week we got the chance to see, recognize and experience the children in a different way.» Staff Kandergrund 2024
I would like to thank you for the extraordinarily instructive seminars. You have undoubtedly succeeded in giving us a well-founded homeopathic charge of dance awareness, which has awakened in me the conviction that I can teach music and movement "stress-free". D.Z. Master student PHBern 2024
«I took a lot away from this seminar. Certainly the 4 components "energy, time, space, weight" but also the understanding of not putting pressure on anyone and giving everyone the time they need and supporting them when they need help. I didn't think I could be so enthusiastic and enjoy dancing. Thank you, Lucía, for this great seminar. I have not only learned something new for my practice, but also for myself.» R.S. Master student PHBern 2024
«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.»
C.G., Teacher School Lupfig 2024
«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!!!»
A.Z. Teacher Primarschule Pestalozzi Thun 2023
«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.» K.B. Teacher in Worb 2023
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
«It was great, that i was able to book the project with the cultural-vouchers. During the COVID 19 Lockdown, so much of cultural events fell by the wayside. We all had so much fun.» Teacher in Langnau, 2020
«It was a great day yesterday and with your power and joy we achieved something fantastic in such a short time. Grazie Mille!» P.K. Teacher in Konolfingen, 2020
«Lucía, it was great to dance with you and the kids. Thanks a lot. You are tough and very much present, what is needed for workshops like this. Complimento!» S.H., Teacher in Brienz, March 2017
«Lucía Baumgartner understands perfectly how to create body awareness and body coordination, how to discover an individual’s movement language and stimulate every students and every teachers creativity.» Beat Krebs, Schule & Kultur Zürich, 2015
«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.» F. G. Teacher in Unterseen, 2015
«You were able to get the children on yours and the dances side within no time with the help of your exuberant charisma.» G.H., Teacher in Uettligen, April 2008
