Blues dancing

Blues is danced either with a partner, solo or in a group in the form of jam circles and soul train lines. The simple basic steps leave a lot of space for improvisation and expression of the music, leading and following thus turns into a conversation between two dancers rather than being a unilateral command. Because of the various styles of music under the umbrella term Blues (Muddy Waters Chicago Blues, Rural/Country Blues, Jazz Blues, Gospel, Boogaloo, Latin, etc.) there is a lot of variety in rhythms, dynamics and most of all emotions, which invite us to express them as dancers.

Franklin method®

The Franklin Method® is a movement pedagogy modality that is used for example in sports, dance and rehab. It uses a unique synthesis of imagery, movement, touch and embodied anatomy allowing quantum leaps in well-being, posture and quality of movement. In this session, we are going take care of our bodies and explore how we can use focus and new knowledge to improve their function. We will geek out a little bit about anatomy and experiment with the effect on our dancing. Treat your body well, it will return the love!
