FACULTY ANNOUNCEMENT – PERFORMANCE & ARTISTRY with LUCA DINARDO ✨

Great dancers don’t just learn choreography, they understand how to bring movement to life.

Designed to complement Jazz Masterclass, this session will focus on the qualities that elevate a dancer beyond technique alone - movement quality, musicality, style, performance and artistry.

Through exercises, drills and creative exploration, dancers will be challenged to think differently about how they approach movement, developing the confidence and awareness to make choreography their own.

The perfect foundation before stepping into Luca’s Jazz Masterclass later in the day.

FACULTY ANNOUNCEMENT – PERFORMANCE INTENSIVE with SAMARA TONG

We had to ask for more… 🔥
