Morning Class and Coffee
In partnership with Cardiff Dance Festival 2019
Class only, £5 / Class and Cafe event £8 / Cafe event only, £4 (coffee/hot drink included) cash on the day
The Morning Groove Class: 9.30 – 11am
Discussion and Coffee at local Cafe (venue tbc): 11.30am – 1pm
Class: With a mix of set material and guided improvisation, we will explore articulation, flow, and movement textures, using body, voice, and touch to activate our presence. We will approach the serious business of dancing with generosity towards ourselves and our fellow dancers, using the class structure to tap into our own curiosity and enjoyment.
We will try to connect deeply, and also to get sweaty while dancing to music.
This session is open to experienced dancers from a range of backgrounds, and welcomes dancers with and without disabilities.
Cafe event: Come and join Annie and the Groundwork Team after class for a coffee and to start a conversation & hear peoples’ thoughts, experiences and strategies on ‘Representation in performance & the artists’ role?’
This event is in partnership with Cardiff Dance Festival. Click here for more Cardiff Dance Festival events with Groundwork
