Dance Discovery
Dance Discovery offers a unique opportunity to work with professional dance artist Casey Lee Thorne and career track dance students from the Dominican University of CA BFA program with Alonzo King LINES Ballet. This class will cultivate a rich sense of self expression and physicality for students grades 4-6. Ballet based warm ups will develop coordination, strength, balance, and rhythm, while creative tasks will encourage critical thinking, working together, and artistic discovery. Students will learn and perform choreographed dances from various styles including contemporary dance, hip hop, bollywood, and afro-brazilian. This ten week program will conclude with an informal showing for friends and family. Please wear comfortable exercise clothes that are easy to move in, and either dance shoes or sneakers.
