About the Workshop:
This class will focus on seamlessly transitioning between dynamic, high-energy movement and smooth, controlled textures. Emphasis will be on musicality—staying in the pocket to hit beats with precision and groove. Students will also work on performance quality, embodying confidence and fully connecting with the music. This class will aim to improve student’s performance quality (texture/facials/timing/musicality and body control) but also having a great mindset when students perform on the stage.
