Performance Skills and Choreography Class
Take to the stage…
Do you want to do belly dance performances?
Do you know the difference between a stage performance and a cabaret seated performance?
Would you like to increase your stage skills to make your performances even better?
THIS CLASS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED!
Starting in 2024, APB Dance is offering a performance-centric class with at least 2 performance opportunities during the year!
Learn dances with Amanda, as well as the core skills you will need to be able to perform them.
What will I get to perform?
You are never too young or too old start performing. This class teaches you the skills you need to both get started and also to level up your performance.
We will be learning some of Amanda’s choreographies to perform; dance movement (as we don’t want to be stuck in only one spot on stage!). Also how to enter, bow and exit the space. We’ll also look at different styles of performances, how improvisation works and different tools and tricks for knowing what you need to do and where you need to be.
You said I can perform?
APB Dance will be presenting at least 2 mini events during the year for you to perform for each other. One will happen at the end of term 2 and the other at the end of term 4. Alongside these, we may also perform at other events if those opportunities arise.
What will we do in the class?
We will be exploring:
- Different combinations and choreographies week by week, building up a repertoire of dances.
- What makes a skilled performance – entries, exits, bows, and how to move around the stage.
- How to develop a strong understanding of the music so you can perform well.
- How to watch other performances (and your own) so that you can find inspiration from many different sources.
