Afro-Latin Movement

Functioning as the fundamental practice in our dance program, Body Movement & Isolations provides a structured time to focus on the concepts of movement without the added burden of choreographed steps.

For dancers of all styles and levels, this training is organized as a system of exercises done in a follow the leader style with no verbal instruction. Starting with the head and moving down through the shoulders, ribcage, and hips, movement patterns are repeated to different styles of music to help develop rhythmical mobility in the entire body.

The exercises address both range of motion as well as fine motor control and culminate in an exciting dance through combining all the elements worked on during the technical portion. Isolations practice is especially useful for increasing and maintaining mobility in the joints and torso and can serve as a meditative and fun way to get more out of our bodies no matter your dance style.

All attendees must be fully vaccinated in order to participate in any class, lesson or event.

Masks & boosters are fully encouraged. Additional constraints can be added depending on the instructor’s preference.
