Grace in Motion is a body awareness method that develops body intelligence by integrating principles of classical ballet, Pilates, and contemporary movement.
As body awareness deepens, posture, strength, flexibility, coordination, balance, and freedom of movement emerge naturally. At the same time, physical well-being and emotional balance become an integral part of everyday life.
We are currently relocating to a new studio.
Our new address will be announced soon.
- Event of the Month: Ballet History Lecture
The Beat of Antwerp: Dance Through the Ages”. The date will be confirmed
Welcome to Grace in Motion!
Grace in Motion began as an adult ballet program. Over time, it was not the method itself that changed, but my understanding of what it truly offers.
This method grew out of many years of my work with professional ballet dancers and from a desire to make the knowledge of the body, developed through classical ballet, accessible to everyone—without simplifying it, while preserving all of its depth and precision.
As I continued to develop this method, I watched people gradually release years of physical and emotional tension. Their posture changed. Their shoulders opened. Their breathing became deeper. A sense of stability returned. The body began to harmonize with itself. And, almost without exception, everyone left the studio smiling—feeling lighter, calmer, and relieved of stress, anxiety, and fatigue.
Grace in Motion is where your natural charisma returns. This is where the body's inner beauty begins to illuminate its outer expression. Hier begint de innerlijke schoonheid van het lichaam zichtbaar te worden in zijn uiterlijke expressie.
I realized I was witnessing far more than physical exercise. I was witnessing the development of body awareness—the body rediscovering its own intelligence and finding its way back to itself.
Grace in Motion is for those who want to understand themselves, understand their bodies, and discover a new sense of admiration for who they are. For those who value an individual approach, quietness, and the opportunity to listen inward. For those who feel disconnected from their bodies or have lost confidence in themselves. For those who have lived through difficult times and are ready, quietly, to begin again. And for those who want to keep their bodies healthy, resilient, and free for many years to come.
You do not need previous experience. You do not need exceptional flexibility. You do not need confidence—not yet.
All you need is curiosity about what your body is capable of when given the right conditions.
To feel at home in your body. To understand it. To move through life with grace.
With warmth,
Olga Iakovlevskaya

Why Grace in Motion Is Important
Physical Fitness and Flexibility
Ballet helps maintain body flexibility, posture, and muscle tone. It enhances joint mobility and preserves the elasticity of ligaments and muscles. The focus on proper posture and body placement helps to improve the back and abdominal muscles, contributing to the quality of younger age and helping to prevent and slowdown age-related changes.
Brain Stimulation
The process of memorising and performing stimulates cognitive functions, enhancing memory and concentration. Complex movements, self-control of the body, rhythm and music, plus receiving corrections from the instructor develop perfect brain function.
Muscle Strength and Tone
Ballet exercises involve working with your own body weight, which improves the quality of the muscles of the back, legs, buttocks, and belly press. It keeps the body toned but also prevents age-related changes.
Cardio Benefits
Ballet exercises don’t look so intense, but they significantly improve cardio function, which is especially important for maintaining good health after the age of 30.
Coordination and Balance
Ballet enhances coordination and balance, which helps prevent injuries in daily life, improves gait, and reduces the risk of falls.
Mental Health
Ballet classes help reduce stress levels and improve mood by focusing on movements and music, providing distraction from ‘everyday life’.
Body Knowledge
Ballet demands awareness and control of every movement, helping you develop a better understanding of your body and improving your inner image.
Self-Discipline and Confidence
Regular training cultivates self-discipline and boosts self-confidence, impacting positively all aspects of life.
Cultural and Aesthetic Development
Ballet develops a sense of beauty, promotes a deeper understanding and appreciation of art, excites inspiration and self-expression.
Social Connections
