CONTEMPORARY UNDERGROUND

“The class will focus on connecting to our senses and finding different energies, dynamic qualities, and total flow through improvisation. Because music is very important to me I like to use it as a tool to inspire students to let go and find themselves in a different physicality connecting to groove. Class will consist of improvisation, set exercises and a phrase.”
