Saturday September 2, 12:00-3:00pm in lovely Camden Town
The Academy Mews Dance Studios, 15 Pratt Mews, London
Through this workshop, you'll learn tools that maximize your presence on the beat and in the melody, helping you feel more grounded and more powerful.
You'll feel more confident and authentic in your movements, and if you are a performer, your audience will have an easier time connecting with you.
If you are a teacher, you'll get tools you can use in your own classes, for teaching improvisation, musicality, and technique
Work with movements from dual centers in the body: "low center," with the deep, rooted connection in the feet and pelvis as found in native dances of the Middle East and Africa; and "high center," with a lifted rib cage and emphasis on long body lines.
"Looping" techniques that follow an Arabic melody line, not only the rhythm (taking inspiration from Samia Gamal, Tahia Carioca, Fifi Abdou and other legends)
Bringing in-place movements of the early classic and awalem traditions into choreographed space, to keep a classic looping feeling even in your traveling steps
Applying these methods to famous music selections, alternating subtle in-place movements and more expansive traveling sections dependent on the musicality (for example, solo instrument or vocal vs. full orchestra)
Transitions: how to connect the musicality of the in-place sections to stage patterns in choreography or improvisation, to move seamlessly from one to the other
A PDF of notes and references will be provided for attendees.
