Put what you know and what you learned in workshop one to good use.
This class is best suited for intermediate to advanced/professional
dancers, although beginning students are welcome. The choreography
will focus on expression, layering, and solid Egyptian style
techniques (both modern and classic). We will also focus on use of
stage space, alternate staging possibilities for the choreo, and how
to approach your audience. This is a usable choreography for almost
any event. Music is included in your workshop fee. Although you do
not have to take workshop 1 in order to take workshop 2, it is
recommended that you do so.
