LUST
Tease with Shillo Amari.
Freestyling is an asset as a performer. In the club you may never know what you’re dancing to, the duration/genre - but you have bills to pay & limited clientele.
In competing you have the pressure of avoiding a mistake. A last minute gig opportunity means you must be prepared in short notice. Stay ready, and you won’t have to be ready.
Here we will explore the bridge between improvisation and performance with guided prompts, visualizations, and presence. This workshop focuses on utilizing the freedom of knowing yourself, music, and focusing on the qualities of freestyling with intention in diverse environments from the club to a competition and more, all while giving emotional depth, musical/lyrical connection and a powerful presence. You will be guided to deepen your ability to connect, communicate and adapt through freestyle movement to give a flawless performance for yourself and your audiences.
Suitable for all levels. Kneepads recommended, heels optional.
11am - 12.30pm
