About M_ART
The idea for M_ART comes from the Latin words movēre artis, which means “the art of moving.”

M_ART presents world class dance masterclasses that promote the best in ballet and contemporary technique and artistry with expertise from a renowned international faculty.
Move_your_art_forward
Founders Elisa Carrillo Cabrera and Mikhail Kaniskin believe that a dancer’s future is now
By assembling a network of world-class teachers, choreographers, ballet school directors, and international stars, the next generation can take their dance technique and artistry to the next level.

M_ART masterclasses present classes in classical ballet technique, pointework, contemporary, repertoire, pas de deux, and conditioning. Students have the opportunity to work with teachers from multiple esteemed international academies — all in one place. Each program ends with a final presentation, and dancers will receive a certification of completion for the course. Selected students may be offered scholarships to internationally renowned ballet schools.

Dedicated training and performance opportunities create a dance artist. M_ART masterclasses bring this experience to dancers around the world.
They know the positive influence that masterclasses had on their paths toward becoming professional dancers. Today, they strive to pass that experience on to the next generation of dance artists.
