Erin Thompson Teaches Advanced Contemporary Classes in Person and on Zoom

Erin, a light skinned dancer in her 60s, tosses both arms and one leg to the left as she leans to the right

Erin’s advanced-level contemporary hybrid class through Zenon Dance School includes floor work, standing warm-ups, and phrase work, all designed to enhance the healthy use of joints and muscle groups as dancers release their weight fully into the support of the ground. Experiential awareness, body mapping, improvisation, and creative work are included as dancers channel their own expressive artistry within the movement. The delightful Dean Magraw will accompany on guitar.

Thursday mornings, 9:30-11:00am 

Registration is open through Zenon’s MindBody portal and closes ten minutes before class.
See you in person or virtually soon!
