Overview

In this grounding and attentive class, we dance with the floor as you would a partner, working with the fundamentals of floor-work; Breathe, core, and relationship with the floor.

What is floor-work?

This style of dancing/moving is based on the floor, using rolling, sliding, turning and flowing in and out of the floor as a way of dancing. It is fun, exciting, and like a whole body massage and workout at the same time!

What happens in the class?

We start with a warm-up and introduction to the floor, followed by techniques, teaching of movement phrase, and practising of the phrase.
The workshop ends with a lovely stretch and relaxation. There will be time throughout for water breaks and chatting through what we're experiencing and learning.

What you get from this class

By the end of the class, you will have formed a new relationship with the floor, gained a greater understanding of the connection of muscles through your body and what muscles are working to complete movements, and floor techniques/phrases. Attending each session will allow you to build on your techniques to become a floor-work master!

Who is this class for?

Previous dance experience is ideal but not essential, as time is given to learn movements and techniques. So whether you're a beginner in dance, or have done floor-work before, this class is for anyone and everyone.

* As this workshop is taking place on the floor, you need to be able to get down to the floor and back up again comfortably, as well as feel comfortable while moving on the floor. If you have any knee/spine injuries/pain, please contact me before booking to check whether this workshop is for you. *

If you wish to attend this class, ideally, please book at least 48 hours before the start time of the class, if no-one has booked onto the class before this time, it may be cancelled, thank you.

As this is a new class, I am testing popularity, this class alternates by-weekly with the intermediate dance class. This class may change to weekly, changed to another day/time, or be cancelled depending on attendance and feedback. If you like this class being on this day at this time, or would prefer different, please let me know, thank you!
