uncaged: Live, workshops

firsts

Last week held a lot of firsts for Bluebird: uncaged. 

-our first open class made and was attended by students as far away as New Jersey! 

Workshop 1

-During our mini-workshop, students refined thier ballet technique, explored telling stories and having conversations through ordinary exercises, pushed beyond thier comfort zones during improvisation, learned repertoire from an upcoming Bluebird video, and created their very own piece of choreography! Friends and family got a taste of their hard work from during an in-studio showing.

A special thank you to Still Pointe Studios for sponsoring Bluebird and providing space for us to dance! 

Workshop 2

A few firsts coming up:

    -April 19: well this is actually a second but we're filming the next video!
    -April 23: we will be performing at West End Performing Arts Center for National Dance week!
    -May 5: a collaboration show with Refuge Dance Company

Stay tuned for more details!

Class 7
Creating environments where artists are free and confident in who they are while integrating technique and artistry

The goal of Uncaged Experiences is to:

  • Coach artists to find freedom in their identity so that they may find their voice and communicate their story
  • Equip artists to bring hope and dignity
  • Integrate technique and artistry

Bluebird workshops include classes in ballet, contemporary and choreography. Using a mentoring/coaching approach we encourage artists to find their identity and communicate their story while pursuing excellence in technique. Choreography classes also include discussion and encouraging + constructive peer feedback.
