Spark Your Creativity with this Innovative Dance Method

Peak Performance Dance Method is a class created and taught by Michael Curtis.  It is a series of interdependent exercises that build on one another.  Dancers work on a series of progressively complex exercises to develop an ability to first connect with a partner, then access emotion, then finally to bring choices and response to choreography.

The Peak Performance Dance Method consists of lectures and exercises broken into 4 classes:

• The Psychology of Performance Anxiety & Peak Experience
• Using Elements of Dance to Create The Bigger Picture
• Using Partner Focus to Enhance Communication
• The Emotional Character & Performance Choices

During this workshop, you can expect to learn:

• Awareness of what may cause your anxiety on the dance floor
• Recall “why” you are dancing and use it to regain your center
• Understand and initiate actions that make up all movements commonly performed
• Develop intentional and clear focus
• Tune into the micro-movements your partner is using to communicate with you
• How to display authentic emotion
• Understand what choices you have in preparing your performances

This is a 4-week workshop. Each class is 75 minutes.  This will spark your creativity and reignite your passion to dance.
