This workshop will focus on how to authentically embody any character on stage. Participants will be challenged to learn a dance combo and apply their own unique perspective to the choreography. Through movement we will explore how to convincingly entice an audience and maintain their attention. The goal of this workshop is to feel confident when personifying different characters and finding how to genuinely connect to the music. 

Suitable for all levels. Form fitting, breathable athletic/dance wear is encouraged. Feel free to wear footwear that is most comfortable for you. Bare feet, heels, and sneakers are welcome. Please bring water, and a notebook.
