Contemporary Dance
This class will work on fluidity in and out of the floor and improvisation. We will incorporate cardio and strength training to become strong and get the body warm. Various choreographic sequences will cover basic and more complex contemporary dance movements including across the floor. We will work both on musicality and somatic elements to sense the body and connect to the surroundings, the music, our own desires and choices, and other people. We will dance to many styles of music and work to improve while in a safe and accepting environment.
