What can I expect for Floorwork (Fresh edition)? đ€
In this class, we dip into Minuetâs understanding of the intersection between Contemporary dance and Breaking, especially where they meet at the floor. Using improvisation, we centre ourselves and explore our own floor patterns, alongside given movements and sequences to practice, take apart, and rebuild as we flow upwards and downwards. Weâll learn a danceable sequence, then cool down with open exchange, staying connected to music, grooves, and community. Expect sweeps, rolls, spins, squats, crawls, hops, drops, and plenty of dancing!
