LIFTS CLINIC with SYLVAIN LAFORTUNE
Every Monday at 19h30 to 21h30 - from 28 April 2008

These clinics will function as open classes. Each week, after a short warm-up, the participants will learn a series of new lifts, created on the spot or learned from already existing pieces. As a group, we will analyse the difficulties and find solutions together. The focus will be the efficient execution of the mechanics, the logical links between the lifts and the artistic connection between partners.

Theory will be discussed as the need arises, depending on each problem.
• Participants may come with or without a partner.
• It is not necessary to have a lot of dancing experience.
• All dance styles can benefit from this clinic.
• It is recommended to bring running shoes to soften the impact of repeated landings.
• Bring your own lift; it may be included in the class content and be the subject of a thorough analysis.

Cost : 20$ /class - 170$ for 10 classes
