Lolita VaVoom:

Fosse Foundations

Bob Fosse var leiðandi danshöfundur á sjötta, sjöunda og áttunda áratugnum og er enn þann dag í dag innblástur dansara og sérstaklega í burleskinu. Hann er þekktastur fyrir vinnu sína í Sweet Charity og Cabaret. Í þessum tíma er farið yfir grunnatriði stílsins og kennd er burlesk-rútína sem er innblásin af honum.

ENGLISH

Bob Fosse was a groundbreaking choreographer in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s. His sleek moves and specific style inspired dancers from all walks of life, including burlesque in the Golden Age. Best known for choreographing musicals like Sweet Charity and Cabaret, the foundations of Fosse style are integral to any movement. Come learn the basics of Fosse’s signature style as well as a burlesque routine inspired by the timeless musicals he was known best for.

Lolita VaVoom: 

Foxy Floorwork

Gólftækni bætir miklum sexíi við burleskatriði EN! Hvernig er best að koma sér þokkafullt niður á gólf? Og hvað á ég svo að gera þar? Og hvernig stend ég upp aftur? Lolita hefur einstakt lag á að laga hreyfingar og tækni að fjölbreyttri hreyfigetu. Og þó að fá svið á Íslandi henti fyrir gólftækni þá er hún góð upp á flæði og styrktarþjálfun.

ENGLISH

Floorwork can be a sexy addition to any burlesque routine, but... how do I get down there, and what do I do once I am!? Lolita will cover all of that and more!

In this 90 minute (can be adjusted) workshop, Lolita will go over stretching and strengthening to build and sustain the muscles required for successful floor work, go over various transitions to and from the floor, and give you the tools to create smooth and sexy floor work that works for YOU. Lolita will always take in to consideration any difficulties you may have with knees, elbows, backs, and more.

Class will begin with a warm up, stretch and strengthening, and culminate in a short routine incorporating floorwork. Please bring kneepads, clothes that are easy to move in, and a water bottle.
