Summer Intensive: Intermediate Contemporary Dance

This class is suitable for people that have a good understanding of contemporary dance and have an experience of dancing for some years.

In this intensive week we will focus on understanding our bodies and their range of movement through combinations that utilise all levels of movement, from standing to moving into the floor. We will focus on musicality, quality of movement and muscle strengthening while learning moving through the space.
