            <title>(NH) Delicious Pauses: Negative Space in Movement with Rosa Noreen</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>Date: Saturday, Feb. 25
<br />Time: 10:30 - noon 
<br />Location: Broadway Bound Performing Arts Center, 501 Daniel Webster Highway, Merrimack</p>

<p>Masterclass Price: $30</p>

<p>FMI: www.ankararose.com/interadv-program.html
<br />ankararose@ankararose.com
<br />603-660-6622</p>

<p>Embrace your stillness. 
<br />The often overlooked element of stillness in dance adds texture, surprise and emotion to a performance. As in all visual arts, negative space must be consciously utilized. When melded with your music, those pauses--sudden & brief or gooey as molasses--keep your audience on the edge of their seats. Plus, your photographer will love you! </p>

<p>Rosa will teach you concepts and methodology, reinforced by combos and exercises towards the application of your newly unlocked skills in an exploration of negative space in movement.</p>]]></description>

            <title>(MA) Dancing the Ecstatic: A Ritual of Surrender, with Aria Michaels Paradise</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>When: Feb. 26 noon - 2:00 pm
<br />Where: Tony Williams Dance Center, Jamaica Plain</p>

<p>Throughout the ages, dance has been used as a vehicle of expressing spirit. This purity and passion of expression is often lost when dancers are concerned with technique and choreography. By focusing solely on perfecting technique, dancers can lose the spontaneity and passion needed for an effective performance. In this workshop, we will explore ways of having the best of both worlds; blending refined technique while surrendering to the character, music, spirit and energy of a piece. This will allow for dancers to deliver more effective and more powerful performances.</p>

<p>The workshop will involve an amalgam of techniques designed to both inspire and challenge participants. We will learn a short combination and practice it with different musical selections. After this we will employ specific visualization exercises to increase our awareness of the energy and movement in the piece. </p>

<p>This workshop is suitable for dancers of all levels. Participants should wear comfortable, loose fitting clothes suitable for a broad range of movement. Dancers are also encouraged to bring a pillow or blanket for the visualization component of the workshop. </p>

<p>Workshop is $20.00 if pre-registered, or $25.00 at the door.</p>

<p>To pre-register, please contact me: abraxas@tinydancer.co or selenasid@aol.com.</p>]]></description>
