Sydney Moves is a fun series of school holiday and after-school dance workshops for young people.
These dance training and development workshops cover a range of dance styles and will provide participants with the opportunity to improve dance skills and gain confidence. The workshops are led by some of our most popular and skilful professional dancers.
Each day will begin with professional dancer and teacher Brianna Law leading Yoga. Using the body as a vehicle for awareness, participants will navigate ways to improve coordination, balance, strength, and flexibility. They will be introduced to short meditation and breath techniques which will assist participants to manage stress and anxiety that can come from pressure and personal experiences.
This intensive workshop will then transition to Contemporary Technique. Participants can learn and improve on contemporary dance exercises provided each day. The exercises have been designed to improve confidence in performing contemporary technique and nurturing a sense of confidence.
There will be a strong focus on alignment, momentum and body mechanics. Participants will be taught to move efficiently, particularly as the exercises become more challenging. They will be motivated to find their own artistic expression to enhance their performance quality. Contemporary techniques will be incorporated throughout the exercises, floor work and self-devised work.
This workshop is specifically designed for young people aged 13 - 18 years.
You can attend IN-PERSON or ONLINE, for the whole week or daily.
Parents in NSW can apply for a Creative Kids voucher to participate for free.
