“Dance Imagined” Movement Workshop
The Volcano Art Center will host Dance Imagined classes with instructor Karen Masaki starting on Tuesday, Jan. 10 at 10 a.m.
The six-session series will explore basic dance technique combined with the exhilaration of movement.
The hour-and-a-half workshop begins with a warm-up then shifts to the basics of modern dance technique with an emphasis on alignment, strengthening the legs and feet, working from the core, and increasing expressive potential through the torso and arms.
An improvisational dance segment will follow, accompanied by music ranging from classical to rock to jazz to alternative. Classes will include movement and breathing exercises drawn from Juliu Horvath’s GYROKINESIS methodology.
This class is appropriate for all who love to move. No dance experience is necessary and the technique portion will be a basic introduction.
Join Karen Masaki at Volcano Art Center on Tuesday mornings from 10 to 11:30 a.m.
Class dates are Jan. 10, 17, 24, 31, Feb. 7 and 14.
Cost for a single class is $20/$15 VAC members or $60 for the entire series for both VAC members and non-members.
