And So We Move - Aug 1st

10:00 - 13:00 CONTEMPORARY DANCE MEETS STREET DANCE | CAROLINE HATEM & RANIA EL KHOURY*

Experience in contemporary dance and/or street dance required

INFUSIONS combines elements of different dance styles: jazz, street dance, contemporary, various tribal stump dances, and even some oriental moves. From warm up to a final choreography, Rania el Khoury and Caroline Hatem will seamlessly travel from one technique to another, giving special attention to spine, weight, rhythmicity, and flow.

When Rania, a street dancer, and Caroline, trained in classical, modern and contemporary, meet to teach and dance, they understand and go beyond (or below) specific styles and techniques. With a good core, a good ear, and deep roots, dance is one.

Fees: $40 include half day including snacks and water.

15:00 - 18:00 CONTACT IMPROVISATION | YARA BOUSTANY & LISA CHEHADE* - BCI

No prior experience in dance required

MELTING GRAVITY is a contact improvisation session that aims to develop a sense of trust and "let go". Through a series of breathing and weight exercises led by Yara Boustany and Lisette Chehade, the participants will play with gravity, surrendering and moving in opposition to it. The session will end in a contact jam.

Fees: $40 for half day including snacks and water. 

18:30 - 21:00 OPEN JAM

What better way to end the day than to move freely as the sun sets! Bring your instruments and your dancing bodies and join us for an improv and contact jam session open to all our participants.

Fees: $5 for participation, snacks and water.
