MONDAY
6 - 6:30 PM BEGINNERMEDIATE TAP (TAP 2) | IN PERSON - RETURNING IN MAY!
WITH KRISTEN MINSKY
SOME TAP EXPERIENCE RECOMMENDED
This class invites anyone with a bit of tap experience to revisit and develop skills. It welcomes advanced beginners to make the leap to intermediate steps and sounds and intermediate tappers to enjoy a slower break down of familiar steps and the accompanying opportunity to further develop their technique. We will learn and practice tap fundamentals such as flaps and shuffles, stamps and stomps, "Irishes" and shuffles off to Buffalo! Each week, we'll kick things off with a warm up (that is the standard start to all Minsky tap classes at Chifferobe), practice movements across the floor and in center and conclude with a fun dance that combines our fundamentals in rhythmic play.
TUESDAY
6 - 6:30 PM HOT HIPS AND SASSY SHIMMIES | VIRTUAL
WITH AMEENA
ALL LEVELS WELCOME
No dance experience necessary.... If you've been on a long dance break, come and shimmy those cobwebs off. BD 101plus offers students individual attention while introducing them to basic footwork, isolations, shimmies, and dance props, such as veil. For those students with more dance experience, optional layers will be added to introduce a little challenge. You will hear different types of Middle Eastern music and learn about its varying rhythms, instruments and expression. Each class includes a warm-up, drills (great for core and improved muscle sense), basic dance steps, and fun dance section where we practice combinations and a wind down period. Throughout it all you will work on full body strengthening, grace, musicality and not taking yourself too seriously. Please wear comfortable workout attire.
