Call out for older professional contemporary dancers!
Would you describe yourself as an older professional contemporary dancer?
If so, you are most welcome to come along and join us at one, some or all of the classes listed below.
These classes are aimed at dancers who have worked professionally as performer, teacher, and/or choreographer – dancers who have technical training/skills in contemporary dance. You may still be working in that capacity or your professional life may be a distant memory but you would love to get back into the studio and rediscover your plié!
Class will follow the familiar pattern of warm up exercises, technique (Graham/Cunningham) and travelling phrases. Then we will move on to learning and developing a longer phrase in the style of Alston.
This is the beginning of a much bigger project designed to create opportunities for older professional dancers to be able to train, create and perform new works - to have the opportunity to persuade our older bodies to sustain or rediscover the physical, technical and artistic challenges of dance that continue to bring us joy!
Friday 20th March - Albany Theatre Coventry in the Courtyard Studio
Wednesday 1st April - The Dance Hub Studio Birmingham
Wednesday 8th April - The Dance Hub Studio Birmingham
Friday 17th April - Albany Theatre Coventry in the Courtyard Studio
Friday 8th May - Albany Theatre Coventry in the Courtyard Studio.
All classes take place 6:00 - 7:30pm.
For more information and to book a free place please contact Sarah Jackson on [email protected]
