The Floor Dance

From 2nd – 13th of February 2017 at Studio Emad Eddin

In this workshop, participants learned the basics of contemporary dance, while recognizing the various methods of using the floor in one’s dance. There are hundreds of ways to “fall” (i.e. get to the floor) in modern or contemporary dance techniques and choreography. One of the most basic and frequently performed, however, is a controlled spiral to the floor. Sonic has taught this spiral and roll movement all the time in his own modern dance classes because even first-time dancers pick it up quickly with proper introduction and because it is a “safe” and controlled way to quickly and smoothly get to the floor.
