17) Diana Byer Launches Teaching Cecchetti,
Revitalizing Cecchetti Technique
for the Next Generation
Master teacher Diana Byer announces the launch of Teaching Cecchetti online classes, a new channel meant to educate today’s dancers via social media. Through posting engaging and relevant content, Teaching Cecchetti highlights forgotten steps, Cecchetti fundamentals, and teaching methods passed down from Margaret Craske, Diana’s mentor and a direct pupil of Enrico Cecchetti. Since October 2025, Teaching Cecchetti has already garnered 2.7 million views with the help of Alex Angrist, one of Diana’s former pupils.
Curious minds will see the Cecchetti classroom in action, and experienced dancers can revitalize their own training in seconds. Rooted in a rich tradition passed down from Enrico Cecchetti to Margaret Craske to Diana Byer, Teaching Cecchetti reframes modern ballet technique through the Cecchetti style, where technique isn’t just an end goal, but a vital tool in shaping thoughtful, expressive artists. The Cecchetti method strikes a balance between structure and expression, focusing on understanding rather than mere execution and skill over raw talent. Diana Byer continues Margaret Craske’s mission to cultivate artistry, musicality, gesture, and skill in the next generation of dancers.
Follow @teachingcecchetti on Instagram and Facebook for style, musicality, and skill taught through the modern eye of Diana Byer.
