Introduction to FlexN Dance & Movement

This course is an open level course that focuses on the history, foundations such as Dancehall and dance movement vocabularies of the international street dance style Flexn. Students will also be introduced to techniques from other dance styles that help broaden the experience. Engaging with this vernacular dance practice, students will build improvisational skills, develop rhythmic abilities, and begin learning some techniques to storytell through dance and movement. Students will learn ways to artistically respond to their world & past/current events, individually and collaboratively. These skills and conversations help students understand the relationship between the self and the communal.
