Guest Teacher – Kristina Chan
KRISTINA will devise a series of tasks and exercises that will challenge the individual to work from the inside out. She will take the dancers through a guided practice of tuning into the senses and the physical space to encourage a physical dialogue between partners. Kristina will incorporate tasks that build upon a physical trust in the present moment. Dancers will develop an increased sensory awareness of their immediate environment to devise new movement material.
This is an open level class for experienced dancers.
