50 Shades of Great

Description

Lately I've been diving into the notion of the BEGINNING of a dance, how long is 'a beginning'? What makes this part so unique and important?

A class will start with exploration of movement skills on our own such as floor work, falling into the floor, using momentum, and arraigning our limbs to meet the floor in an effective way. With a partner we'll try to do the same.

Then, there's the dance. When does something work? Why? I'm interested in the learning process which happens within the duet. Through games and different tricks, we'll try to disrupt our habits and discover new ways of challenging our borders. It might be hard but it's got to be fun!
