About This Activity
Description
This class will cover a wide range of partnering forms and skills with a focus on fundamentals and technique. We will explore classical and modern styles as well as learn some fun and exciting tricks within our specialty of counterbalance partnering. This is where dancers achieve very off-balance positions by using the countering effect of another person’s weight to create shapes and achieve movements that would be impossible without the support and pull of their partner. A heightened sense of awareness and sensitivity will be developed through cooperation and exploration. Partners will change out regularly and everyone will partner with everyone. By interacting with different body types, sizes, and skill levels, participants will gain a variety of practical experience and increase versatility within a practice of listening, patience, and compassion. All levels under the correct age category for this class are welcome and encouraged.Dress Code: Dance wear or athletic wear that is comfortable and easy to move in is required for this class. Shoes will not be worn in this class; dancers will be completely barefoot. Dance socks must be approved by the instructor and must be a brand such as Capezio, Bloch, Apoolla, or a dance sock with proper support.
