2019 WORKSHOP
Workshops have been confirmed and we are excited to offer a wide range of talent.
Bex Diva - Inspire Yoga / Greta Tapper - Belly Dancing / Neil Robertson - Salsa
Please let your teachers know what workshop you would like to be in and we will try our best to fit you in.
Descriptions:
* Salsa - Neil brings more than a decade of salsa dancing to this workshop. Would you like to surprise fellow school mates at the ball this year? Impress them with a few simple moves! Come to this workshop and learn to move to the Latin beat of salsa. Neil has been teaching adults to dance LA style salsa here in Nelson for 5 years now. The workshop will teach the basic rhythm and foot work for LA style salsa. The emphasis will be on fun . There will be some pointers on how to partner dance and I will also teach a short shine ( so that you can show off your moves without a partner ). Bring your dance shoes, a positive attitude and a smile
* Inspire Yoga - Bex Deva Rebecca ('Bex') Deva was born to dance. 'It fills me with loads of energy and helps me feel connected to source,' she explains. She also discovered African drumming and dance at the age of 15 – and she has been passionate about music and movement ever since. Bex went along to her first Nia class in Christchurch in 2006, and fell in love with the sensory-based movement practice that draws from the martial, dance and healing arts. She completed the inaugural New Zealand White Belt Nia teacher-training program in 2008 and has since gone on to train as a Green and Blue Belt and recently completed the 52 Moves training.
* Bellydance - Greta Tapper - Ever wanted to learn the beautiful art of belly-dance? Professional dancer, teacher and artist Greta tapper is going to perform 3 different styles of belly dancing. A great way of keeping physically and mentally fit. Amongst Greta’s other talents is her love of art and the way it can inspire and move you. Greta has been teaching for 15 years and performing for 10 years. She will have you shimmying and shaking in a supportive and encouraging environment.
