CONTEMPORARY
with Chantelle Good
In this class, we will tap into individual artistic expression and empowered movement. Empowered in the sense that dancers are welcome and encouraged to show up as their fullest selves, and approach class as a vessel for exploration vs something to “achieve”. We will begin with an improvisational warm up drawing from a variety of modalities, allowing dancers to connect to their bodies with curiosity and intuition. The warm up always ends with a house music dance party; a way for us to channel joy, play, and freedom as a community. The rest of class will be spent exploring a contemporary movement phrase focusing on circular pathways, textural qualities, and musicality.
