‘Kusu Kusu’ Level 1.5 Bollywood Technical Workshop
Apr 19, 22 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm AEST
Join us prior to the Term 2 ‘Kusu Kusu’ Course for a Level 1.5 Technique Workshop in-studio and online! This is a must for anyone new to bellydance techniques/Dance Masala, this is also perfect if becoming a stronger, more graceful and aesthetically-pleasing dancer is important to you! We will drill the following techniques in this session:
- Belly Dance Based Techniques: chest isolations and circles, hip circles, flat circles, belly shimmy, shoulder shimmy, triple hips, Maya/Taksim, Snake arms, weight changes, the hook step
- Other isolation based techniques: Single hips, pelvic thrusts, moving with quick footworks isolating the head and neck
- Musicality: counting and understanding of textures (hard and soft)
- Hand/Arm movements of: snake arms, arm positions
- Following syncopated musicality
We recommend level 1.5 for those who have prior studio dance experience. Dance technique is the foundation upon which you build dance steps. Bollywood layers hand and arm movements on top of footwork and the technical workshop is a great opportunity for those who are new to dance to focus on just the hands, or just the feet before it is taught in the Choreography Course in combination!
