Donation Based class with Michelle Sagarminaga
Company: Dance to the People
Venue: Spaceworks Long Island City
Location: Long Island City, NY
Class description
The class begins with simple improvisational exercises to activate the body and mind. Through task oriented improvisational prompts dancers will generate movement that will be incorporated in a new phrase by the end of the class.
This process gives dancers more interesting imagery and dialogue to create work utilizing their imagination to make choices rich with dynamic and beautiful movement. An inter dimensional dance class that is conducive to their own personal fulfillment and artistic realization.
Experience required for the participants
All movers are welcomed.
