Winter Intensive | Day 1

Class Description

Winter Intensive | Day 1 | Foundations/Beginner Level DRILLS & COMBINATIONS: This session is a deep dive into the intricate layers of Fusion Bellydance body isolations, fluidity and musicality, building a strong foundational technical base. We will explore new pathways through learning slinky combination. The workshop will start with a 30-minute-deep conditioning practice to wake up the body! UNDERSTANDING TIME SIGNATURES (TO IMPROVE YOUR DANCE!): Understanding musicality and learning to count time signatures in 4/4 rhythm enhances your dance! By understanding the nuance of speed and tempo, you will develop a better sense of control and precision, elevating your technique and allowing for a deeper connection between movements and the rhythm of music. IMPROVISATION TOOLS: Improvisation can be intimidating and yet it is a wonderful tool to work on presence and connection to the body. This workshop will explore key concepts in improvisation such as textures, movement focus & musicality. Having a framework can help the mind detach to allow the body to fully express itself OTHER INFO: There will be a 30 - 40 minute lunch break and a 15min afternoon break PLEASE BRING BYO lunch/snacks Water bottle Notepad and pen (if you like to take notes during the Improv Tools workshop) Bellydance belt or hip scarf (optional – no coins please) IMPORTANT Parking Information: Avoid parking on Evans Street Saturday - Parking on Lygon 2hrs until 1pm & unlimited after 1pm Sunday – Parking on Lygon unlimited all day Alternative all day free parking nearby: Cross Street Brunswick East (Fleming Park) 6min walk from the studio, Albert Street Brunswick East (Fleming Park) 6 min walk from studio
