Ready to take your dance off your feet and add a little daring flair? This 10-week series explores the grounded, fluid world of fusion floorwork alongside the art of balancing props. We'll combine strength, control, musicality, and expressive movement to create a dance practice that's equal parts technique and attitude.
We'll start by building the foundations of floorwork, including conditioning exercises to develop the strength, mobility, and body awareness needed to move confidently closer to the ground. As the session progresses, we'll explore transitions, pathways, and movement combinations before introducing the art of balancing — with opportunities to work with baskets, trays, and even swords!
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐥𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞:
• 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: Develop the strength, mobility, and coordination needed to move smoothly between standing and floor-based movement.
• 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝘀: Build the physical foundations that make floorwork more accessible, controlled, and comfortable.
• 𝗙𝗹𝘂𝗶𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: Explore ways to connect movements with intention, creating sequences that flow with the music.
• 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗰𝘀: Gradually introduce prop balancing, with opportunities to experiment with baskets, trays, and swords as your skills develop.
• 𝗙𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: Blend grounded movement, dynamic transitions, and a little theatrical flair into your own dance vocabulary.
New to dance? You're welcome here! This is a multi-level class, so we'll build skills progressively, with options to work at your own pace. Whether you're completely new to fusion or looking to expand your existing dance repertoire, there's room to explore, practise, and challenge yourself.
No need to arrive already knowing how to balance a tray on your head while moving across the floor. That's part of the adventure! We'll work on the foundations first and build from there.
