Customize That Choreo
Because dance should fit you, not the other way around.
You just learned a killer workshop choreo—but something feels off. It’s beautiful, but it doesn’t quite fit your body, your vibe, or your style. So now what?
In this creative, hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to take choreography you’ve worked hard to learn and make it your own—without losing the integrity of the original piece.
Because dance is not one-size-fits-all. Every dancer brings their own strengths, personality, and flair. It’s time to let that shine.
What to Expect:
• A real talk on intellectual property—what’s cool to change, and what’s not
• Tips for adjusting tempo, transitions, and styling to match your aesthetic
• How to modify levels, arms, and footwork across different styles (think folkloric, cabaret, fusion)
• Practice on a short choreo phrase and start customizing it—your way
• Share your take and explore different interpretations in a supportive space
Come ready to explore, play, and celebrate your individuality. Let’s transform movement into something that feels like home.
