Class Description

CLASS • CHOREO • CREATION

Nafisah will lead a contemporary based class to get centred and warm. We will then learn a new choreography together (permission to film). 

After a short break, we continue using task-based exercises individually and connecting in groups, with the intention of creating a short final group piece.
