These fun and informal classes are for students who have had some previous experience in contemporary dance.  Level 1 is suitable for those who hold a basic understanding of the techniques involved but would like to develop their skills.  These classes strive to build confidence, improve technique and increase participants dance vocabulary under the guidance of expert teachers.

This level 1 class is for students who want to improve technique, strength and self-expression.  These classes encourage the full use of the spine and pelvis to rhythmical patterns of live drumming. Sessions will consist of centre work, floor work and travelling combinations culminating in a challenging dance sequence.  Please note Level 1 is NOT for complete beginners.
