HOUSE & UK JAZZ workshop with Alesya Dobysh | Dance Colony #5

Alesya Dobysh, a choreographer based in the Netherlands, has over 10 years of teaching experience.
In her movement language and classes, she blends influences from footwork-oriented dance styles (House Dance and UK Jazz Fusion), floorwork, contemporary dance techniques, and her own personal explorations.
Constantly seeking creative expression in dance, Alesya discovers different ways of expressing herself through movement. This unique and creative movement, rooted in deep self-analysis, helps her stand out on the urban dance scene and win at major festivals, as well as find her place in the world of performance art and theater.

Some class topics:
the use of footwork in relation to space and music;
rhythm of movement, groove and flow, musicality;

HOUSE and UK JAZZ classes focus on analyzing the fundamentals of these dance styles, their development, creativity, and the structure of improvisation.
