About Contemporary Beginners with Leanne Lieberhong
Work with increased physicality and develop a more dynamic approach to movement.
Dance artist, Leanne Lieberhong will guide you through this beginners’ class, helping you develop your contemporary dance skills and technique, accompanied by the live music of Bobby Demers. You will have the chance to explore your own styles and movement approach through a choreographed phrase taught in the class.
Leanne's approach is influenced by the techniques of influential dance artist Merce Cunningham and release-based contemporary styles. Cunningham technique emphasises the movement of the spine through curves, tilts, twists, and arches. Incorporation of release technique encourages flowing movements that focus on breath.
