UPDATE on Nov 20: Due to rising Covid cases across Greater Chicago, our November 26 event is now vaccinated or recent negative Covid test ONLY.

Lesson: This month we will focus on musicality. Let’s rediscover different ways we can connect with our main dance partner – music! We will focus on finding unique ways of expressing ourselves with our movement while honoring the rhythm, texture and dynamic of the music. We realize that dance classes are a bit tricky during Covid times, so we will focus on exercises that folks can do partnered or solo!

What is fusion?
Fusion is a genre of contemporary American partner dance that focuses on combining different dance and music styles together into a seamless whole. This can be as simple as doing a style of dance to a non-traditional music genre, but most often involves using steps and techniques from multiple dance styles in one dance. The cornerstones of fusion are musicality, connection, and creativity, encouraging dancers to be inspired by both the music and their partners.
