FoCo with LEVELdance company member Nat Wilson
About FoCo:
FoCo Technique™ is an original and evolving dance vocabulary developed by choreographer and artistic director of YYDC, Yue Yin. Echoing her choreographic voice, FoCo Technique™ is a unique contemporary form of dance movement rooted in Chinese classical and folk dance melded with the complex and diverse experiences of the immigrant experience. The form grows from Yin's own blended international background and a deep appreciation for precision, contrast, fluidity, and musicality.
FoCo Technique™ teaching is conducted in a follow-along method and the movement is closely aligned with the music. The instructor demonstrates sequences of movement based on the principles of FoCo while following a three-stage structure:
Activating - establishing the connections between mind and body,
Rooting - finding footing and building grounded awareness
Mapping - understanding the transitions and pathways of movement phrases.
