FloorWERK: A Burlesque + Floorwork fusion

What is FloorWERK?: Get it on the floor! Join burlesque artist and choreographer Ari/Elle Du Jour in a fun, flirty, & filthy way to explore the floor. In this sensual burlesque dance class, the focus will be on building several core ground-based “skills” per class, creative drills, then incorporating them into choreography… or should we say FLOOReography?

Level: Intermediate/Beginner (some sort of previous dance or movement background will certainly help!)

Vibes: burlesque, contemporary/modern dance, floorwork, jazz fusion, top 40, R&B, slow grind, “heels” (but not really)

Song hints/inspo: Guess x Charli XCX, Nasty x TINASHÉ, CHIHIRO x Billie Eilish, the boy is mine x Ariana Grande, Big Boss x Victoria Monet

This class operates as a 4-week series. There are 2 options for flexible payment.

Payment Options: Package (fee-free) or Pay Per Class

Option 1: PACKAGE (FEE-FREE) @ $20/class (4-class package/$80 total)

___________________________

Space Accessibility: The current studio space is up a flight of stairs with no elevator (apologies, babes). Accessibility info: https://www.newporttheater.com/safety

Movement Accessibility: The nature of the class will require getting up and down off of the floor for a significant amount of time. Modifications will be provided (beginner, intermediate, and advanced) so that everyone can get something out of their time. Please reach out before or during class if you need more assistance.

COVID policy: The space currently does not require masks, BUT since we will be in a small studio together I like to take a group conscience whether or not all would like to wear masks at the top of each class. Best to bring one just in case, for everyone’s comfort + safety.
