We can do more by doing less
Focused excellence & purpose are the motors

TEACHING IS OUR CALLING
COMMUNITY, LEARNING & MAKING MEMORIES
PASSION & EXPERIENCE
ARE NOTHING WITHOUT CARE!
“Every single student is precious to us, we know your name and are ready to walk with you every step of the way. As dancers we wanna share our passion for expression with you. As teachers we are without rest until everybody get´s the chance to reach their full potential. As friends we take your hand and walk together through an amazing adventure that will create memories forever”
We’ve been teaching dance students since 1999. And now, we’ve brought together everything we’ve learned, for teaching dance students around the world through our classes, lessons and interactive communities. By working closely with many of the best dancers, teachers, and coaches in the world for many years, we have collected a wide range of technique and styles to give YOU now the most organized, intuitive, and effective way to rapidly improve your dancing. Next to giving you access to a versatile range of experience, knowledge and assistance in learning we have created our own signature method of bringing the best results for our students. Supporting them becoming better dancers, growing as human beings and express themselves as creative and intelligent artists. We do what we love here is how:
Practice makes perfect. And better practice gets you there faster, more efficiently, and with way more fun!

Hi! I'm
Sarah Balzat.
Teaching Artist & Artistic Director YBAC
Her first contact with the arts was with music. As she grew up in a family full of musicians and began performing on the stage at a very early age of 6. Music was always an important part of her life. A few years later, starting to study afro cuban movement culture at the age of 14, she was directly hit by the power and intense expression of the culture of dance which is unbroken until now.
A Bachelor´s degree in classical and contemporary dance and a Master's degree in choreography and dance education helps to build a bridge between the arts and education and to find the best method for every student. Knowledge collected through her Bachelor's studies in Psychology, Philosophy and Educational Science helps to guide the student through the learning process not only as an artist but as a human being.
“I believe that you can learn whatever you set up your mind to. Together and through dance we explore your power and find what makes you unique so that the world can see you in your full potential ”
LET`S GO TOGETHER.

Thank You!
Yerba Buena was founded in 2007 and in a long process with the help of many people, students and supporters. Many people have put their heart and soul in this project and have helped it become what it is today: A home for many students.
I wanna thank everybody for believing in my vision and for walking a part of it with me. Many of them are now big influencers and amazing teachers themselves to more people in this world, this makes me proud and humbles me. Without your support and effort Yerba Buena would not be what it is today! Thank you!
