A series of professional masterclasses delivered by the festival visiting artists in partnership with Birmingham Pro Class

About the class

The class will explore how to flow between breakin and other movement techniques, refining extensions and “released” versus “dynamic” movement execution. 

Weight distribution and movement concepts through short improvisation, travelling sequences and technical drills. 

The class is aimed to develop all professional dancers, from those in professional training through to Bboys and Bgirls/streetdancers wanting to develop their range of movement or simply wanting to take part in a fun and physical morning dance class.
