Event Description

This choreography driven class is focused on the intersection of classical and urban vocabulary. We'll begin with a warm up consisting of cardio and dynamic stretching, and proceed to learn a short phrase through which we'll explore different textures and qualities of movement. We'll have a chance to practice the movement and also observe fellow class takers. Dance experience is highly encouraged!
