SUMMARY:Festival style dance workshop (Boston)
DESCRIPTION:Kate Spanos will teach a festival style hard shoe workshop for Rebecca McGowan Dance in Boston on Tuesday\, June 2. Check out the details below: \nWork on your control\, strength\, musicality\, and stage presence with this special workshop in festival style Irish dance with Kate Spanos! The session will focus on the techniques that are typical of this style’s “slow” set dances and you will learn some choreographies that put these techniques into practice. \nFestival style Irish dance is from the Belfast area of Northern Ireland and was innovated by Patricia Mulholland (or “Miss Mulholland”) in the 1930s to 1950s to draw the focus of Irish dance towards individual expression\, with a focus on performance and musicality. Festival set dances are much slower than their feis style counterparts\, and dancers pay particular attention to expressing “light and shade” in the music. Grace\, elegance\, and control are key features of festival style. \nLevel: Intermediate/advanced hard shoe
