Spotlight: Contemporary (Int/Adv) with Florence Wang

Join us for this 2-hour spotlight class designed for intermediate and advanced dancers looking to refine their contemporary technique in a fun and inclusive environment.

What to Expect:

We’ll begin with a warmup and a series of center and across-the-floor exercises to build strength, control, and articulation in preparation for the second half of class: choreography. The combo will draw from the warmup material while encouraging dancers to explore their own unique style and expression. The goal is for everyone to leave class feeling more confident, inspired, and in love with contemporary dance!

* Strengthen your skills in contemporary technique and dance.
* Explore and improve strength, control, and articulation.
* Connect with community and have fun in a supportive environment.

Meet Florence Wang:

Florence Wang (she/her) was raised in Columbia, SC, and has been dancing for the past 19 years. Although her primary focus is contemporary and contemporary improvisation, she has trained in a myriad of styles and dance techniques. She started her training in classical ballet at the age of 3 at the UofSC Ballet Conservatory, and then later auditioned and joined the Columbia City Jazz Conservatory (CCJC) company where she trained in ballet, contemporary, hip-hop, and jazz, and competed in prestigious conventions–including but not limited to–Nuvo, Jump, 24/7, and Adrenaline. She went on to attend Duke University where she joined Defining Movement Dance group (Duke’s premier multicultural dance group) and Devils en Pointe (Duke’s premier ballet company). In Spring 2020, she helped co-found Duke’s first and only contemporary and improvisation dance group, Embodiment Contemporary Dance. While serving as president and co-founder, she helped choreograph, lead weekly classes, and teach collaborative workshops for four years. She was also an active member in the Duke Dance department and had her works presented in multiple university dance shows and graduated with a minor in dance. She is super excited to share her love for dance and explore contemporary dance movement in her class!
