MOVETE | Contemporary Dance Workshop
with Béthany Martínez
£28
Hampi Studio, The Shala Yoga Centre, West Norwood
Join Béthany Martínez for MOVETE, a 90-minute beginner-friendly contemporary dance workshop designed to get you moving with awareness and joy.
In this class, you'll explore the fundamentals of contemporary dance, focusing on expansive spinal movements, spirals, curves, tilts, and twists.
​
Béthany will guide you through flowing movements and playful floorwork, all set to a wide range of Latin American rhythms. You’ll build stamina, connect with your body, and have fun in an inclusive space. While some previous movement experience is ideal, everyone is welcome.
​
We recommend bringing comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely (long trousers and long sleeves) and a water bottle.
