NANNY LUBIS - PENDIRI NAMARINA

NAMARINA is the first non formal ballet, jazz dance and fitness institution in Indonesia. Established in 1956 by the late Nanny Lubis in a mission to build a stronger and healthier nation.

Since then, we strive to develop our ballet, jazz dance and fitness activities in Indonesia and have created many well-grounded, dependable and dedicated teachers, dancers and fitness instructors.

In 1970, NAMARINA was affiliated with The Royal Academy of Dance (RAD), a renowned ballet institution in the UK and has been taking part in RAD’s examination annually. We also have our own curriculum for ballet, jazz dance and fitness, designed for our students as well as administering our in-house examination.

In 2006, NAMARINA initiated a semi-professional dance company called Namarina Youth Dance (NYD), as a vessel for young, talented dancers who share the same aspiration that dancers can be seen as an equal to other professions. Together, we want to create a professional dance company that can be the pride of our nation.

With 60 dance and fitness teachers as well as administration and communication staff, NAMARINA is still growing to create and take action for our beloved nation with our vision; “Vigorous Indonesians with empathy, aesthetic awareness and creative human resources”, and our missions:

Raising understanding about dance, ballet and jazz dance in particular.
Increasing values
Creating healthy Indonesians with fitness
Strengthen social interaction, heighten aesthetical awareness and stimulate creativity through dance education, specifically in ballet and jazz dance.

Nanny Lubis

FOUNDER

November 24, 1926 is one of the happiest days for Ir. Abdul Hadi Lubis and Siti Nurida Siregar. That day, their second of four children was born, and she was named Nanny Anistasia Lubis. Little did they know that in the coming years, Nanny would become one of the most prominent figures in Indonesia’s dance and fitness world.

In 1975, Maya acquired “Elementary Certificate” from Royal Academy of Dance (RAD), Singapore. A year later, she went to London to further learn classical ballet. For the first two years, she was the student of the late Ruth French – one of the principal dancers of Pavlova Dance Company, and also an examiner of RAD’s Vocational Graded Examinations.
