Stephanie Coming (CAN/AUT) - Contemporary Dance Training
Date: Sep 28 to Oct 3, Mon through Sat 10.45 am- 12.30 pm
Venue: TQW Studios
This class will follow a set structure beginning with a warm-up on the floor which gradually and organically brings the dancer into movement through space. The use of weight and momentum as well as a heightened kinesthetic awareness in terms of tension and intention are just a few of the focal points we will work on. We will approach movement phrases as choreographies which, through our use of contrast and imagination, transform and become stories unto themselves. Stylized material inspired by my work with Liquid Loft will no doubt make an appearance.
