OPEN LEVEL AUGUST CONTEMPORARY CLASS

Service Description

*We have two rates for this session. This rate is suitable for those working in dance e.g. makers/teachers and dance students as well as anyone on a low income/in need An open level contemporary class for adult movers who wish to keep strengthening and honing their contemporary technique, at a slower pace, in connection with others and the space under the careful guidance of Orley This 'Dynamic Release' contemporary class draws from a range of techniques including: Release, Limón, Cunningham & Passing Through. The sessions start with warm up / 'joint oiling' exercises such as spine work, gentle floor phrases and plie work. Gradually building up, there will then be more dynamic phrases that go in/through/out of the floor as well as swinging & travelling phrases that move dynamically through space, three dimensionally. These set exercises are sometimes supported and enriched by improvisational scores and 'crossing patterns/drills'. At the end we work on a lengthier sequence providing an opportunity to bring all of the session thinking together. * Ideally we work bare foot in these classes. Knees & shoulders are best covered to facilitate sliding. * If you can not afford this class but would like to attend, please get in touch as we can probably support you and make an affordable plan. *If you would like a faster paced contemporary class, we have one on Tuesday this week
