IN-PERSON | Mondays 5:30 to 7 PM
Instructor | Michele Miller
Beginning Contemporary Dance is designed for the absolute beginner, so all are welcome. It is a traditional, technique-based class focusing on classical principles of dance movement, posture, coordination and musicality. We will begin on the floor with some simple warm up exercises, then move to standing exercises incorporating the whole body, move across the floor and then finish with a short, fun phrase that we will repeat several weeks in a row.
The class is not a series, so come whenever you feel the desire to move your body to some music!
Michele Miller has taught dance to all levels of humans since 1987. She is Professor Emeritus in Dance at Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, WA where she taught for 28 years. She founded Velocity Dance Center and SHIFT Movement and Healing Arts, Inc. in Seattle, WA, and directed her own dance company Catapult Dance from 2014 to 2020. As a professional, Michele toured the US and abroad with the Pat Graney Company and LeGendre Performance, and was a visiting Guest Artist at the Hong Kong Academy for the Performing Arts from 2004-05. She has missed dancing terribly and is very excited to be teaching again here in the lovely Barn in this amazing community of the NEK!
