Class Description: This intermediate/advanced contemporary class incorporates improvisation and momentum-building sequences that explore efficiency, gravity and individual expression. Melissa believes that nothing the body does is wrong and that the practice of dance is the process of awareness and intention. Class will offer geek-out details as we look at functional anatomy, dive into curiosities and celebrate our unique dance approaches. Music matters in this playful class that moves through a curated playlist that gets our hearts pumping and bodies jumping.
General Class Information: Class is intended for Professional and Pre-Professional Contemporary Dancers. We call it Int/Adv because it is taught with the assumption that dancers are in different places in their careers, and with the intention of providing space for emerging and seasoned artists alike to experience agency and choice-making that honors their personal and professional needs.
