Intensive Performance Seminar

with

Mira Betz

 

San Francisco: November 6-10 2008 SOLD OUT

New York City Intensive: spring dates To Be Announced shortly!

 

A unique, versatile approach to the bellydance intensive, a weeklong designed for the dedicated dance enthusiast itching to take their performance to the next level.
This intimate group exploration will stretch your notions of how dance can be striking on stage, and allow you to unlock new areas of creativity in your bodies, and your mind.
The seminar brings together many of the styles and forms which Mira has carefully integrated into an exciting, powerful, liberating approach to creation, including: personal expression, musicality, precise defined technique, structured improvisation, focused writing exercises and more.

~Explore ideas of shaping thought and feeling into meaningful forms of musical expression
~Develop your stage persona
~Challenge your ideas of history, dance, choreography, and context

This will be run more akin to a college seminar than a "bellydance class", complete with research projects, presentations, and critique. The class size will be VERY small in order to insure personal development, encourage process, and increase individual attention. This class will fill up quickly, register early to save a spot!

We will make every effort to find local dancers willing to put-up outta-towners in order to save costs. Studio is located close to BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) and in the heart of the Mission district in San Francisco, with plenty of inexpensive delicious food, great coffee shops, and infamous music venues for after-hours fun.

San Francisco Studio located at 3252 19th Street in San Francisco at the corner of Shotwell between South Van Ness and Folsom [map]
