Rina and Marce will guide you through posture, balance, alignment and strengthening exercises in the first part of the class. We will share some great exercises to create and maintain a dancer’s body.
In the main body of the workshop, we will use the work we did and apply it in forward and back ochos, such as the transfer of weight and how we can dance the ochos with style, grace and confidence.
Then, we will discuss how to “dance it”- to suggest and express differently according to the music.
We will also work on some beautiful embellishments to continue practising at home so that you can comfortably apply the work we did in socials.
Every 1st and 4th Saturday of the month ( with some exemptions)
Connect-Collaborate-Practice-Dance
The idea behind this practica:
We invite you to bring an intention to this space – something you want to work on. Whether it be developing fluidity in that butterfly boleo, or working on your walk…
Come to practice and collaborate with your peers.
Who knows – you might have a way of explaining x move that the person next to you has been struggling with in such a way that helps it ‘click’ in their mind. And vice versa – they may have a gem or two to offer to you. Of course if you simply want to dance, that is welcome, too.
Every 1st and 4th Saturday of the month
3-6pm
