We are excited to have guest teacher Katie Cassady teaching our company classes online!
Friday, June 12, 10:30-11:30am, zoom link TBA
Class description:
We will begin with a warm-up focussed on stabilizing and mobilizing the body to facilitate a safe and free feeling to begin dancing from. We will then move through some improvisational explorations. Finally, we will learn a phrase of contemporary movement. Let’s get in tune with our bodies and find some funky fresh moves together!
