Absolute Beginner Modern is designed for those with no prior movement or dance experience. Taught by Emily Loar, this class series will introduce a variety of foundational modern dance concepts through inviting, low-impact movement phrasework, with the goal of creating a more confident and comfortable relationship with one’s moving and dancing body!
• What to Expect:
• An introduction into the foundations of generous floorwork, and experimenting with improvisational exercises.
• Learning the foundations and understanding of head-tail connection, contraction and extension, core and distal initiation, fall and recovery, spinal articulation, spatial awareness, musicality, and self-expression.
• A welcoming and supportive environment where everyone is encouraged to learn at their own pace.
Perfect for anyone curious about modern dance or looking to develop a solid foundation in movement, this class will leave you feeling stronger, more confident, and inspired. No prior dance experience is required—just bring an open mind and a willingness to move!
