Tuesday October 3, 2006 Ak’Ana Proudly Welcomes:
TEMPEST presenting 2 workshop offerings
6:00 pm * ~ Dramatic Body Language ~ *
At the heart of Gothic Belly Dance
is the ability to express deep emotions through the dance in a dramatic style.
While in theory, this makes sense, understanding how to make this happen
physically is another matter. How does one go about transferring matters
of the heart, mind, and spirit into a corporeal expression? In this
workshop, we learn to take regular belly dance movements and add Gothic
accents to them, focusing on expressing emotion, intent, and power
through our steps and presence. From facial expression to fingertips,
we’ll be dissecting the accents that give Gothic Belly Dance extra
substance, drama, and excitement. You’ll take home movement
embellishments and flourishes to incorporate into your own style. This
class is especially for any dancer who is ready to perform or is
considering it.
8:00 * ~ Dancing on the Right Side of the Brain ~ *
Artists, writers, and other creative folk are said to be “right-brained”
They think in pictures, images, and random patterns. Engineers, accountants, and other
number/fact people are said to be “left-brained” … meaning they think more
mathematically, linearly, orderly. Learn to unleash your creative side
and truly be "in the moment" with your dancing. Often, a dancer can get
too focused on choreography, counting of steps, beats, and therefore
become “left-brained” in their dancing –meaning they’re being technical,
and not dancing creatively, spontaneously, from the heart! In this
unusual workshop, we’re going to do some mental and physical exercises that will help you engage your right brain in your dancing!
