What is Contemporary?

Class Length: 1 Hour

Intensity: Low to Medium

Contemporary will begin from the ground up; simply breathing and resting in stillness, and gradually the body awakens through a guided warm-up/improvisation. The practice grows with intensity and layering of ideas through imagery, sensory awareness, and weight distribution. The second portion of class will consist of across-the-floor contemporary progressions, often incorporating floor work, and/or a phrase of choreography in the center.
