Dynamic Floor Dance Course

Come and join us to try this fast moving 8 week dance course!

DYNAMIC FLOOR are intermediate-level floor work classes aiming to develop fluidity and movement rhythms.

We will work on the coordination and physicality of movements to understand how to organise our bodies in order to enter and exit the floor.

We will use our weight and momentum to move in an efficient-effortless way without disrupting the flow of movement.

What's the class?

The Folk Implosion

“How the fuck are we going to turn this into a song?” That’s the question Lou Barlow and John Davis have asked themselves since co-founding the Folk Implosion in the early 1990s. Beginning with improvised jams featuring Barlow on bass and Davis on drums, the duo develop their beat-driven pop collages from the ground up. It’s the process they used on their debut cassette, Walk Through This World with the Folk Implosion, and one they’ve returned to 30 years later on their spellbinding, self-referencing reunion, Walk Thru Me.

Mik Artistik's Ego Trip

Mik Artistik is a poet, performer, artist and comedian. With his compadre Jonny Flockton on guitar, and a selection of well heeled bass players, they hypnotise audiences with their special brand of joyous madness. 

Delightful, frightening, strange and hysterically funny, Mik throws shapes and straws, and croons like a dream - sometimes. Jonny holds him in check with forceful, elegant and sublime guitar work.
