About Contemporary Beginners with Laura Gibson

Classes start on Thurs 19th Sep 2024 and run until Thurs 5th December 2024 (excluding Thurs 31st Oct due to half term)

Develop your technical precision and increase your range of strength and stamina.

This energising class is designed to help you explore movement through Release technique – a perfect next step from the introductory course. Incorporation of Release technique encourages flowing movements that focus on breath.

The class will include set exercises to help develop technique and musicality alongside encouraging you to find enjoyment through the expansive use of space. Rhythmic percussionist Stefano Ancora will help inspire your movement with live accompaniment throughout the class.
