ELISE
Elise is a Belgian-born professional contemporary dancer, performer, and teacher based in Brussels. She has a bachelor's degree in contemporary dance from the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp and has been working as a freelance dancer since 2013, collaborating with numerous dance companies across Europe and beyond. Her passion for movement, however, began much earlier—at the tender age of four, when she first heard Björk’s “It’s Oh So Quiet” playing in her living room.
Alongside her dance training, Elise explored yoga and Pilates, uncovering how indispensable and complementary they were to her artistic and physical practice. These disciplines have not only strengthened her body but also enriched her mind, fostering a deeper awareness of her entire being. Inspired by their transformative impact, she went on to complete a yoga teacher training program, becoming a certified yoga instructor.
As a coach, Elise blends her passion for dance, music, and strength to create dynamic, imaginative, and engaging workouts. She thrives on challenging her students to step beyond their comfort zones while ensuring they feel supported with kindness and empathy. Her approach is both invigorating and mindful, fostering growth and confidence in every session.
