Serendipity Workshops
Chorus conundrum
09.30 - 11.00 Saturday
Join Marek in this workshop based on chorus work. You’ll work together as a team and learn how to make the chorus a beautiful frame for the feature dancers. The workshop will focus on the basic principles of set up, entering and exiting as well as keeping the lead movement as strong as the feature dancers to create a seamless performance. Be prepared for lots of dance practise.
The Calm in the Storm
11.30 - 13.00 Sunday
This workshop is based on spins and slow turns. Learn how to harness your power and stay strong and in control in your turning movements. If spins and turns are your weak point, let Marek help you to step out of your comfort zone with ease and without spinning off the rails.
