Date and Time: 8 sessions on Tuesdays & Thursdays, 2:00 – 3:00,

May 26, 28; June 2, 4; June 9, 11; June 16, 18

Students will learn a warm up, some basic ballet vocabulary, and various games and tools to build a dance. Together we will use the constraints of a video format to build a final performance to be viewed on zoom. We will invite costumes, characters and movement to make a world in which music and dance use no words to tell a story.

This exploratory and collaborative class melds together the visual and performing arts!

You will need: An open space in your house, loose clothing
