About this event
- Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes
This one-night workshop is open to all ages and movement levels and is especially recommended for first-time or beginner dancers. Rather than jumping straight into choreography, this class focuses on building a strong foundation by understanding the fundamentals of movement in dance.
Using a fun, accessible approach inspired by modern, contemporary, and ballet traditions, we’ll break down posture, balance, and basic dance steps while introducing Laban Movement Principles. The goal is to build confidence, coordination, and body awareness in a supportive environment. No prior dance experience required!
