fullstructurePngOur Seminars

Our seminars are based on the theory that all partnership dances require techniques and a balanced mastery of three primary facets.

  1.  Control
  2.  Partnership
  3.  Expression

Along with these three faces of dance, we also deal with the overlapping skillls.

  1.  Control/Partnership
  2.  Partnership/Expression
  3.  Expression/ Control

 Surrounding all is environment.

 

Control:

 All the skills necessary to make your body do the movements you ask of it. This includes techniques in:

Posture, Footwork, Balance, Dance frame, Lead focus, etc.

Partnership:

Learning to pay attention to your partners weight, intention and balance as well as learning to respond in a way that promotes comfort.

Expression:

Learning to listen, respond and communicate to your partner the accents and rhythms suggested by the music.

 Environment:

Environment includes all facets we have little or no control over such as...

       State of the floor (Slippery, sticky), # of people on the floor, their skill level, our own mood, etc.
