Ladies’ Styling & Spinning
1:30pm – 3:00pm
The Dance Complex, Central Sq.
This workshop will be separated in two parts:
First, Pierina will concentrate on ladies’ styling and help add more personality to your dancing. All choreography will emphasize styling, which can be applied to your overall dancing and technique. The piece will be broken down into basic body movements such as body rolls, head whips, arms paths, etc.
Then the world’s most effective method of spinning will be introduced. Pierina will cover this method, which improves speed, reaction time and balance, along with other techniques to help with overall footwork and body positioning for ladies.
FreeStyle & Shines in Mambo
3:00pm – 4:30pm
The Dance Complex, Central Sq.
This workshop is addressed to both ladies and gentlemen. This is the opportunity to learn a fast-paced, fun routine that will include elaborate footwork and styling for both men and ladies. The emphasis will be put on the steps and the routine itself, rather than on the styling. We want this class to be an opportunity for all to be challenged, have fun, and express yourselves!
Offered with each class is a CD with clips of each routine that will be taught as well as MP3’s of the songs and music used.
