Junior Contemporary Dance Class
A creative contemporary dance class for boys and girls, an environment for young people who have shown an interest in dance, movement or acrobatics.
Each week the dancers will, in this nurturing environment, experience the endless creative possibilities of contemporary dance – floorwork, leaps and turns, gestures, going upside down, and a wide range of music, moods and dynamics. Through learning and making choreography, junior dance company classes will work towards studio-based performances.
Each session includes a warm-up, creative dance games, development of innovative dance material with the young dancers' input, rehearsal and preparation for performances.
Performances are optional, according to the schedule of students. Together, students will grow in confidence, strength and ability through improvising, creating, and practising drills and dance phrases. The main focus is to nurture the young students into contemporary dance, allowing one and all to have input in the choreography material, thus encouraging their creative confidence, enabling their own dance to be shown and shared. In this class we also use acrobatic and partnering material, teaching different handstands, cartwheels and movement material that excite children.
Open Level Contemporary Dance Class
For a contemporary dance experience in a supportive environment that will challenge you at your own pace! Held at an open level, developing strength, mind-body connection and energy efficiency for people and dancers at every stage.
Driven by a love for kinaesthetic flow and physical creativity, these contemporary dance classes get you moving, going upside down, falling off balance, and back up again. Each class is designed to get you in touch with your own groove, informed by somatic/embodiment practices and dance forms. You will increase your body awareness by understanding movement patterns, challenging coordination skills and musicality, and getting to move more freely. These contemporary dance classes will challenge your core, your body’s dynamic alignment, and increase the articulation of your spine, hands, and feet. Beyond improving fitness and physical health, dancing encourages your expressivity through physical precision, focused exploration, and spatial/collective awareness. It is also, fundamentally, great fun!
