Monday Evening Troupe Class (Hypnotic)- This class is by invitation only. Class begins at 7:45 and will end promptly at 8:45. Studio doors will be closing promptly at 9pm. Extra Rehearsal times may be required, but only immediately preceding a scheduled performance. This class is not necessarily considered an advanced class, the terms beginning and advanced are relative, so I will do my best to refrain from using these terms. What sets this class apart is that it is a performance class. For this reason, the focus is on precise movements in coordination with the group as a whole. The mental focus changes from that of a solo dancer, and the thought process is trying to make everyone’s movements the same. This session’s focus will be on cleaning up a Chiftetelli piece we’ve been working on and beginning a new piece of choreography later in the session. If you have an interest in auditioning for the student troupe, please let Nahla know.
