POV
SUMMER 2008 WORKSHOP
AUGUST 9,16, 23 & 30
POV Dance's four-week workshop is designed for
those with dance
experience who are interested in expanding their idea of how
and where dance can be created and performed. With a focus
onfloor work, inverted movement and lifting, students will develop
new skills in partnering and weight-sharing, both with other dancers and inanimate structures. This focus will familiarize
the student with the necessary tools for safely dancing in
non-traditional and site-specific situations with an enhanced level of comfort
and grace.
The classes will consist of a modern dance technique warm up,
mixed with
strengthening and conditioning movement. Partnering exercises
will be explored to acquaint dancers with each other and each
class will close with an evolving phrase, encompassing the
various foci of the workshop. Preregistration is recommended,
but drop-ins will be allowed on a case by case basis.
