Outreach
Community Projects
We will choreograph a dance with a group of people (disadvantaged young adults, at risk youth, college students, corporate employees) to bring freedom through creative expression and unity amongst the group. The dance piece will then be performed at a pre-arranged performance space, possibly at the professional performance of Truth dance. Rehearsal schedule will be determined based on the project.
Workshops/ Master Classes
Technique - available from beginner to advanced, uniquely designed to cater to the particular needs of the students, influences from modern, ballet, and jazz culminating into an exuberant, contemporary class, incorporating repertory, and increasing the students’ movement vocabulary.
Choreography - enabling students to effectively communicate their own artistic voice, from the non-dancer to the professional, using movement explorations and improvisations, attention to design, shape, form and development, introducing critical and analytical thinking of choreography, creating from diverse impetuses
Supplemental Training - yoga, Pilates mat, stretch and strengthen.
Lecture Demonstrations
Date rape awareness and prevention - live performance of or using the video of “Behind Closed Doors” to introduce the topic of date rape and to engage the students in a discussion of awareness and prevention.
Autobiographical dance - autobiography influences the repertory of Truth dance, by demonstrating the repertory (live or video) and discussing how personal experience can be an impetus for developing choreography and providing tools to accomplish this, students can learn to develop their own choreographed dances through autobiography, also for the non-dancer to increase their understanding of articulate choreography.
Corporate classes
On-site classes to energize and restore including yoga, Pilates mat, dance, kinetic awareness (movement based).
Residencies
An extended period of time allowing for more in depth instruction, explorations, and practical experience, more opportunities for performances and interactions.
