Anna Syrjänen: Sensual Heels, Commercial Dance & Twerk Workshops / Wed 16.12.

The amazing dancer and dance instructor Anna Syrjänen is visiting Flama! In Anna’s workshops, you’ll dive into the worlds of confidence-boosting Sensual Heels, music-video-inspired Commercial Dance, and energetic Twerk. As an instructor, Anna is energetic, encouraging, and attentive to dancers of all levels.

The open-level workshops are more challenging than beginner classes. You can participate if you are familiar with the basic techniques of the particular dance style. If you have a strong dance background, you can also join the open-level classes even if you have no previous experience in that specific style. The advanced beginner level, on the other hand, is suitable for dancers who have already mastered the basics of the style. This level is generally suitable for those who have been practising regularly and actively for approximately six months to one year.

Description

Sensual Heels

In Sensual Heels, you’ll dive into the world of dancing in high heels, with an emphasis on feminine and sensual movement and energy. During class, you’ll learn to dance in heels naturally and confidently! We’ll explore heels technique, including walking and turns.

The class is open level and suitable for dancers with some previous dance experience. You are also welcome to participate without heels if you prefer

Commercial Dance

Commercial Dance is a dance class that combines and draws on techniques from various dance styles while embracing a bold, music-video-inspired attitude. During class, you’ll immerse yourself in choreographies of different styles and have fun together!

You can participate in an open-level class if you are familiar with the basic techniques of the particular dance style.

Twerk

Twerk, which has gained great popularity around the world, focuses on movements of the pelvic area. The moves learned in class can also be used, for example, on the dance floor at a party! During twerk classes, you will become familiar with a variety of techniques, such as shaking, jiggle, thrusting, hip throwing, bouncing, and some floorwork. The class begins with a warm-up, followed by an introduction to some basic movements. Twerking improves overall physical fitness, especially strengthening the back, thighs, glutes, and abdominal muscles.
About Anna

The level for improvers is suitable for you if you already know the basics of the dance style. This level is usually suitable for those who have been practicing actively and regularly for about half a year or a year.
