The technique focuses on healthy, joyful and expressive practice. (Corvino danced for the Ballet Jooss and was Ballet Master at the Wuppertaler Dance Theatre, and at Juilliard, where his mentors were Anthony Tudor and Margaret Craske. )  Attention is given to musicality, weight transfer, placement and dynamics.
