    Denise e Vera Casoni Jazz - Ballet, South America

  Rua Bulhões de Carvalho, 396 - Ipanema - Rio de Janeiro, RJ           
Denise e Vera Casoni Jazz - Ballet é uma escola de dança, que vem realizando um trabalho de qualidade, seriedade e sucesso há 25 anos. Em junho de 1981, Vera Casoni abria sua academia ao lado de suas filhas Denise e Christine, que hoje, são as coordenadoras da escola. Sua sede, uma casa de três andares, está localizada entre os bairros de Ipanema e Copacabana, Zona Sul do Rio deJaneiro.
Vera dirige a escola e cuida da parte administrativa. Denise cuida da direção artística e é professora das turmas mais avançadas e Christine coordena o balé clássico e dá aulas para as turmas infantis. Além delas, uma equipe de professores garante a excelência no ensino dos vários estilos e técnicas oferecidos pela escola, que vão desde as aulas de balé clássico até o jazz dance, street, sapateado e contemporâneo, entre outros.
"Nosso objetivo é oferecer cursos de qualidade, onde cada professor tem o compromisso de priorizar o aluno, em relação à faixa etária, o corpo físico, o ritmo de aprendizagem, a sociabilidade no grupo, a parte cognitiva e motora. A escola pretende esquematizar os programas de aula de forma a levar ao aluno um conhecimento mais amplo. O público-alvo, em sua maioria, ainda não vê a dança como importante processo educativo no desenvolvimento psicomotor e é evidente a necessidade de se imbuir esta concepção sobre a dança,” diz Christine
