Workshop/Master Class
Participants will discover their own championship spirit by joining Soul Street in fun dance and work-out drills. Soul Street workshop offers the opportunity to learn healthy, active lifestyle habits and have fun doing it. Sessions begin with a full stretching warm-up and close with a cool-down. Soul Street will teach participants the foundation of many dance styles and, very importantly, to “Catch” the rhythm and “first move” and dance in time to the beat. Different styles of choreography are taught that they can then use to create their own original dances. Even if dancing is not a career choice, the discipline and healthy work-out habits of dance give a focus that will enhance any life goal. A workshop has something to offer all ages and skill levels from beginner to professional, so whether just starting or tuning up mastered skills, a Soul Street Workshop is the place to be. Your championship spirit is waiting!

No Bones About It
By tracing the signals from the brain that tell our muscles to stretch and contract, we learn about the science of dance. Combine this with a dance fantasy of how we might move if we had no bones, and you have an energetic program by Soul Street Dance to connect to your health and science curriculum!

When we see dancers perform amazing leaps and bends we often ask, “how do they do that?” The Soul Street dancers present skeletal features such as hinged joints and ball-and-socket joints, and show the audience ways in which our bodies can accomplish amazing feats by combining bones, muscles, and commands from the brain.
Please Note: Classes should take place on a wooden floor – not cement. Participants should wear loose clothing and sneakers.
