The workshop focuses on the art of choreography, using the pole as a tool for creative expression. You will learn a choreographed routine incorporating tricks and transitions with a focus on authentic movement, extensions, and fluidity. Amber will break down each movement so that it is appropriate for all levels and will teach you her signature balletic style. You will also learn some key choreography concepts that will help you develop well balanced routines on your own! Amber will show you how to make any move more beautiful by paying attention to lines, toes, hands, and timing. You will also be taught some of Amber's "signature tricks"! Feel free to come in with certain tricks you would like to learn or focus on improving.
