SUMMARY:Open Company Class
DESCRIPTION:Upcoming Schedule: \nThursday\, March 31 @ 9am \nFriday\, April 8 @ 9am \nFriday\, April 15 @ 9am \nWe are excited and inspired by the community partnership between Regina Klenjoski Dance Company and Andover Dance Academy! This partnership is designed to support and promote all levels of dance experience in our community. One of the offerings through this alliance is an Intermediate/Advanced Modern Dance Technique class for dancers 18 and older. RKDC will be rehearsing at Andover Dance Academy regularly this year\, and it is opening its company class to the community on Friday mornings from 9-10:00 AM. It is a wonderful opportunity for adult dancers to hone their technical skills\, get their bodies moving\, and get acquainted with the company. Class fee $15. \nClass Description \nOpen Company Class begins with a short body-sensing improvisation\, builds to center strength work\, and finishes with across the floor large traveling phrases.  Her modern class emphasizes improvisation for body awareness\, dynamic alignment\, flow through a strong understanding of weight\, the five levels of space (floor\, low\, mid\, high\, air)\, and body intelligence through somatic perspectives. \nKlenjoski has 30 years of experience performing\, choreographing\, and teaching dance to ages 2-99.  She has trained hundreds of pre-professional and professional dancers through classwork that draws from her background in Limon and Release technique\, improvisation\, ballet\, inversion methods\, and somatic movement practices grounded in Bartenieff Fundamentals and Laban Movement Analysis.
