I studied with David Howard in New York in the late 70's. It was fantastic what he could inspire in dancers. I loved his classes which were a paradise of musicality. Gelsey Kirkland, Leslise Browne and Cynthia Harvey would come in and take class too. It was a wonderful wonderful experience and I learned so much in a very short period of tme. I went on to dance professionally and kept his teaching close to heart for a long long time. Thank you David!!!!!!
i have never learned so much in one class like i have in his. He comes up with corrections that make you go "OMG, why didn't i think of that!" He is truly amazing, it's true teaching not just compliments and talking. Love you Mr Howard!
oh my god i got to take two classes with him a couple weeks ago, so so so so so inspiring. i absolutely loved him. he changed my perspective of dance. i cannot say enough good things about him. :] <3 I LOVE DAVID HOWARD!
i took a master class of his up at burklyn ballet theatre and again at abt. He was really great, a little condescending but all in all a helpful teacher
Quite correct and right on about what has happened to contemporary "culture" - or what's left of it. The golden age of the ballet boom days (as it was at Harkness, the DH School, and others) is history. Thanks to teachers who hang in there, there's hope for the future. Let us preserve and extend the art (not egos).
Thank you David, this needed to be said. I would like to say that in my opinion, the POB has managed to survive the times. They're incredibly musical, and never cease to amaze me each time I see them.
this is fantastic.
thank you for posting.
he's so clear and centered and observing things so calmly.
such an interesting and seasoned perspective.
love!
