Barefoot Dance Classes
fluidity
Move & flow like liquid
Refine your movement, move like liquid and flow around the pole. This is the class for you. Concentrating on grounded movement, leaps & spins & floorwork, Fluidity will give you the tools to create beautiful fluid movement on and off the pole.
By using your body & gaze as momentum you will have a whole new approach to pole dancing.
​
Rather than focussing on choreography, Fluidity will give you short sequences of movement that swirl & roll from ground & floor and back again, every single week. You will find new movement pathways that will benefit you in any form of movement. Inspiration can be taken from anywhere, and this class will make your body & mind feel wonderful, & increase your body & movement awareness.
