About
This professional contemporary class aims to prepare the body and mind through a mixture of set sequences and creative, improvisational tasks. We will be exploring how the use of imagery and characterisation can influence movement created and the dynamic qualities it is performed. We hope to give an insight to the creative and choreographic tools we are currently exploring therefore expect the space to be creative, playful and sweaty.
