What is Movement Motif?

FDComm’s “Movement Motif” program, led by Shannon Lewis is designed to elevate Latin dance proficiency through key elements: posture and alignment, core strength and stability, weight shifting and transitions, and turn technique. These aspects are crucial for executing precise hip movements, maintaining balance during complex footwork, and mastering dynamic transitions typical of salsa, bachata, cha-cha, and rumba. By focusing on these fundamentals, participants refine their ability to perform with fluidity, grace, and authenticity, enhancing their overall dance technique and expressive capabilities in Latin dance styles.

We have 4 upcoming group sessions. Below are their descriptions

GROUP SESSION 1: POSTURE AND ALIGNMENT

This group session plan focuses on the fundamental aspects of posture and alignment in dance, providing dancers with the knowledge and techniques needed to enhance their performance and prevent injuries. The structured activities ensure a comprehensive understanding and practical application of these essential techniques.

GROUP SESSION 2: CORE STRENGTH AND STABILITY

Core strength and stability are integral to Latin partner work, providing balance, connection, and control essential for executing dynamic movements with precision. A strong core facilitates a solid frame, enabling effective lead and follow in dances like salsa and bachata. Additionally, it supports agility, reduces injury risk, and enhances overall performance quality, ensuring a fluid and enjoyable dance experience.

GROUP SESSION 3: SHIFTING WEIGHT AND TRANSITIONS

This workshop provides dancers with a solid foundation in weight shifting and transitions, enhancing their fluidity and control in various dance styles. The structured activities ensure a comprehensive understanding and practical application of these essential techniques.

GROUP SESSION 4: SPINNING TECHNIQUE IN DANCE

By focusing on the fundamentals of turn technique and applying them to various dance styles, including Latin dance, this workshop aims to enhance dancers’ turning skills, leading to more polished and confident performances.
