powerful self-help method can help
you to move, live and breathe more
easily. This workshop introduces the
theory and practice of the Alexander
Technique in everyday activity. Please
wear loose, comfortable clothing to
allow easy movement. This workshop is for those who have
studied an Introduction to Alexander
Technique and are looking to explore
the Alexander principles and practical
procedures in more depth. The Foxtrot and Quickstep are both
great fun, in their own individual ways,
and they are popular rhythms, too.

This is a week-long summer school
that will focus on strengthening the
body, learning ballet and
contemporary technique and
developing performance skills. The
classes will begin with 30 minutes of
floor barre, followed by 1 hour of ballet
technique and will finish with an hour
and a half of contemporary dance. The
aim of the week is to gain body and
spatial awareness, get fit and enjoy
dancing! The classes will build up
throughout the week and we will also
work on a piece of contemporary
choreography. Vasiliki Stasinaki is a
professional dancer. Vasiliki studied at
the Greek National Ballet School and
Northern School of Contemporary
Dance and is a member of Maiden
Voyage Dance Company.
Originating in the late 1910s, the
Peabody is a brisk dance that covers a
lot of space on the dance floor. Danced
to almost any up-tempo Dixieland jazz,
it moves like a relaxed quickstep, with
long, gliding strides and a few
syncopations. The iconic look comes
from the leader changing sides as he
travels around the floor and adds
promenades and simple turns as the
dance progresses.
