Join Karen Minami in this special workshop where she will share the secrets she uses to create dance performances that are bursting with expression and life, by activating deep emotion and boundless imagination.
In the first half, you will learn original choreography, crafted from Karen's unique fusion of lyrical contemporary and theater jazz dance, built on over 20 years of training in Tokyo.
The second half is where the fun really begins! Through a playful process, you will be placed into a narrative designed to activate your imagination. Utilizing a variety of scripts, Karen will help you explore a range of emotions to deliver a unique version of the choreography, infused with your own expression.
This creative experience will guide you in colouring and shaping dance choreography with the assistance of imagination and theater. You’ll learn to enhance your facial expressions, refine your storytelling skills, and expand your movement vocabulary to use your body as a powerful tool of expression! This workshop isn’t just about dance—it’s about unlocking your imagination and discovering new ways to express yourself through movement.
Please wear comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement. Bare feet, socks, jazz shoes or ballet flats are all acceptable.

Karen Minami Biography
Karen grew up in Tokyo, where she was a performer with Ikuko Kanemitsu Dance Company for 20 years, giving her world-class training and experience in Jazz and Contemporary dance. Karen was awarded the GrandPrix prize at the Jazz Dance Art Association Competition in 2007. Always curious about other forms of dance, Karen has also studied dance in New York, Varanasi, Melbourne and Sydney. She has toured internationally as a dancer with award-winning artists and has performed at various Australian music festivals. Karen moved to Byron Bay in 2013 and now incorporates influences of West African, Ballet, Belly Dancing, Tap and Kathak dance into her original Contemporary Jazz dance choreography. Her primary project currently is 'Liquidelic', a live performance group that fuses dance, music and analogue projection art into a theatrical show.
