Contemporary, Basic
No experience needed. Just the desire to move differently.
Discover the art of moving with yourself
Have you never danced before? Or is it something you left behind years ago?
Do you want to reconnect with your body, move freely, and build confidence?
This class is for you.
A welcoming, safe, and accessible space for adults with no prior experience or basic knowledge of contemporary dance — designed to help you explore movement as a path to transformation, expression, and well-being.
You’re not here to “know how to dance.” You’re here to feel, listen, and rediscover your body as a tool for creativity and self-awareness.
A progressive journey: 4 modules to transform your relationship with your body
Module 1: Posture
Your starting point. We build the foundation for a strong, aligned, and available body.
Physical preparation | Body alignment and core work | Movement qualities (inspired by Laban 8 efforts)
Module 2: Dance Framework
You begin to speak the language of dance.

Module 3: Balance and Self-Regulation
Find your inner and outer balance.
Guided improvisation | Conscious physicality | Listening to your limits
Module 4: Confidence
We celebrate everything you’ve learned.
Complex sequences | Spatial presence | Expressive movement and identity
An open invitation
This class is not just about technique. It’s a space where each movement becomes a new way to be with yourself, release, and enjoy who you are.
Dancing is not about copying steps — it’s about meeting yourself in motion.
Come move freely, without judgment, among others who are also beginning their journey.
Get in touch to reserve your spot.
We meet every Thursday to move, grow, and dance — together!
