Fridays 6-7:30pm | $50 for a bundle of 5 classes or $12 drop in
Instructor: Natalie Aceves | Location: Lounge
An energetic fusion of vernacular modern, urban/street, jazz, Latin and African rhythms; embodying a fiery yet earthy movement vocabulary, celebrating a paralleling intercultural spirit of the Bay Area and Natalie’s dance background of ballet, modern, jazz, Afro-Haitian, Latin, Brazilian, urban/contemporary and hip-hop. Class heats up with strengthening, stretching, brakes down movement vocabulary and ends with choreography and a cypher. Dance funky footwork, floor phrasing, release and contraction, spinal angulations, bodily percussion and isolations. Self-discover, express, liberate and build confidence in class, take 90 minutes to empower your soul with an extra dose of joy, self-love, maintaining mind/body balance with warmth during winter season in a sweat with spicy global dance beats!
