Sunday, April 14th @ 3:45-5:15 PM Level: All Levels
Dancing for an audience can be intimidating, whether for a studio showcase, a competition or an event. In this workshop we will dance, discuss and discover different ways to access our confidence through our basic instincts. This class will be filled with games, prompts, and discussions to find new ways to connect to your body in movement and the music, harnessing your body’s preferred language. Together, we will create a safe space for each dancer, to explore their confidence and find new aspects of themselves in movement; while vulnerability can be sensual, it’s up to each of us to assess how we feel best as a performer. This workshop aims to accomplish this by sharing theories on musicality, intention, character-story development, character-music connection, and more!
Early Bird Price: $80 (Until March 31st)
Meet your instructor! Jordan Kensley is a US-based pole dance performer, judge and instructor. She has been dancing since 2012 and she strives to embody the nuances of this art form in every dance. Jordan is also a certified Structural Integrationist; she includes this bodywork as an option while she is on tour. Pole Dancing and Structural Integration have allowed Jordan Kensley multiple opportunities to appreciate the body & mind connections in movement, especially in the form of free styling and performing. This understanding has forged her signature range of stylization with her compassionate & knowledgeable teaching style. She uses her movement and biomechanical understanding to better inform her students of how their body works in their own experiences, and leads them toward finding pathways of movement. Jordan enjoys sharing her enthusiasm with anyone interested. She has met so many inspiring people within this community and is looking forward to meeting many more in the years to come.
