Fan Performance with Beverly (2 hours) - The goal of this class is to take your performance to a new level by the addition of fire fans. You will learn to move with the fans as an extension of your body and create stunning visual images. Other than Fire Safety this class will cover: Attitudinal Posturing, Combinations, Isolations, Turns & Transitions which can be used with the gorgeous feather and silk fans. Feel free to use any set of fans in class. Knowledge of basic fire or dance performance is helpful. All levels welcome. Bring your inner Fire Diva and be ready to let her out!
Poi for Belly Dancers with Lorelei (2 hours) - Back by popular demand! Learn the basics of poi spinning and how to integrate this beautiful prop into your dance. Lorelei will teach the tricks and transitions that translate to dance most readily. Your new poi skills will allow you to perform with veil poi, flags, fire, or LEDs. All levels welcome!
A Juggling Workshop with Sketch (2 hours) - Everyone can juggle. They just don't know it yet. The most basic juggling pattern, the Cascade, is easy to learn. The rest is just practice. Juggling is a great skill that will entertain you and yours tremendously. It is also a great meditation. So come on. Pull out some balls and play with them. It's a whole lot of fun by yourself or in a group. Even better, find a partner and do it together! This workshop will cover the basics of juggling in a relaxed, move-at-your-own-pace environment. Experience the thrill of juggling! It's simpler than you think!
Hoop Dance with Lorelei & Sketch (2 hours) - Put your belly dance superpowers to good use! Hula hoop is all about core control. In this class you will learn to hoop on every part of your body, from the tips of your fingers to your thighs & back up again. Learn dazzling off body tricks as well as how to flow with the hoop, creating a fluid and spiraling presentation! This will be a dynamic and intense class. Be prepared to sweat. This ain't your mama's hula hoop!
Cirque du Yoga - Partner Yoga for Dancers (2 hours) - Ever seen Cirque du Soleil and thought, I want to try that? Partner yoga combines the acrobatic grace of Cirque du Soleil with the flowing power of yoga to create a dynamic workout that will expand your physical vocabulary as well as your mind. With an emphasis on traditional yoga postures, we will blend isolated dance movements while using partners to support the body in gentle back openers and inversions for a deep, subtle, and thorough exploration of both. Our emphasis will be on proper alignment, expression, and improvisation as we create a playful and supportive environment increasing trust, strength, and flexibility.
