Jamaican Dancehall & Reggae classes @ Studio 14 with Caroline

Learn to dance to the beats of Jamaica. Dancehall is known to be the popular urban dance that originated in downtown Kingston. It is a street style that acts as a tool to express culture, sensuality, spirituality, happiness and community. This style is energetic, sensual and fierce. It has a unique groove and attitude to match the catchy rhythmic reggae 'riddims' which it is danced to.

In class, we will focus on its afro and reggae roots, mastering isolations and ‘wining’ technique, as well as learn dancehall steps from the past to present. Think Sean Paul, Chaka Demus & Pliers and Beenie Man.

These classes explore the traditional dance form with an emphasis on natural movement and are suitable for people with or without dance experience.

Hosanna is a performing artist, dancer and 2007 Australian Tango Champion. She has appeared in venues across Sydney from underground spaces to the Sydney Opera House.

Friday nights: 5Rhythms @ Heffron Hall with Ted Morris Dawson

The 5Rhythms™ comprise a simple movement practice designed to release the dancer that lives in everybody, whatever age, limitations or experience. The 5Rhythms invites each of us to deepen our self awareness as we pay attention to our bodies in motion. Rather than having steps to follow, the 5Rhythms offers a different path in which you find your own expression and choreography, thereby stretching your imagination as well as your body.

Ted has been dancing the 5Rhythms™ since 1996 and is an accredited 5Rhythms™ dance teacher having successfully completed Gabrielle Roth’s teacher training program. He has a background in performance and theatre and was a professional actor and playwright for ten years before training as a Shiatsu practitioner.

Come and join us for a weekly high energy 5Rhythms workout as we surrender ourselves to the joy of movement. These drop in classes are open to all dancers and no pre-requisites, previous experience or specific level of fitness is required. The hours count towards WAVE hours required for Gabrielle Roth’s teacher training programme.
