Solo Jazz Inspiration – Open Level (3h) w/ Elle:
Old and New Drawing inspiration from the original jazz dancers who paved the way, we’ll start by learning some material inspired by the incredible artists Mabel Lee, Al Minns and Leon James. We will not only focus on the past but then also on more modern dancers and music, blending tradition with innovation through a range of choreography and improv exercises.
Lindy Hop Int / Adv (3h) w/ Clément & Valentina:
Composing a dance involves tuning into the music, discovering your harmony as both a dance duo and as individual dancers. Clément & Valentina will introduce techniques to deepen your musicality and enhance synchronization with the music in partner dancing. To elevate your skills, we will challenge you to improvise in your Lindy Hop, pushing your limits with faster tempos and playful variations.
