Ballet Repertory Workshop with Cherylyn
Cherylyn Lavagnino will be teaching contemporary ballet repertory at Peridance Center beginning May 31 and continuing through June 4. The Monday-Friday series of classes, running from 1:00-2:30 pm each day, will be for female ballet dancers, and it is strongly suggested that they bring pointe shoes.
Cherylyn Lavagnino's work explores how the ballerina can be conveyed as independent, strong willed, and physically dynamic. The class will incorporate a ballet barre to prepare the dancer for the full range of movement and dynamic variation of the choreography, and the workshop more generally will focus on the execution of Lavagnino’s contemporary ballet aesthetic. Specific phrases will be introduced so that as the material is explored, both technical and performative information will be relayed to each dancer.
Full Workshop (Mon-Fri): $85
Single class: $17
