Our next 3-week series of workshops with Gaétan will feature:
Musicality in the Latin Dances
This workshop will cover helpful information and exercises required to achieve better musicality in the Latin Dances.
Workshop Series Topics:
- How to Dance in Relation to Music. Although dancing with a proper technique is important, developing the ability to react and to express to the music should progress as much as the technique.
- Listening/Feeling/Executing. Through awareness of the music’s characteristics of each dance, including rhythmical patterns, musical accents and phrasing, the ability of interpretation depends on your senses, spatial awareness and facial expressions.
- Body Awareness. Learn how the body parts from toes to finger-tips work together to enhance the musicality in the execution of different figures use in the Latin Dances.
Gaetan has provided outlines for five additional Latin topics. Your feedback is invaluable it deciding the next set of workshops. Please check out his descriptions on this downloadable pdf and let us know your preference by emailing us at: classes@vbds.org
