Curvo Movement
Level: Intermediate
Studio: Amsterdam Dance Center
Schedule: Sundays 11:15-12:45
Curvo Movement is a dance class at the intersection of Contemporary, Modern and Afro-Cuban dance, the ideal combination to infuse flow, technique and freedom to your movement inspired in all human circular motions. With the goal to let you move with fluidity and confidence across elements of spiral, undulation, contraction and high release, etc, the class prepares you for diverse combinations that follow musicality, varied movement qualities, dynamics and simple to complex coordinations. This invigorating class will encourage you to work with unity and purpose and explore movement from a functional and an emotional perspective though the floor and across the space. Get ready to boost your dancing skills with an extra: learning soft acrobatics, which will make this experience so much fun for us!
