Haitian Folkloric Dance with Jessica is a vibrant high-energy master class accompanied with live drumming by Mizik Rasin. The workshop starts with an endurance building warm-up to prepare and condition the body with isolations and strength based exercises. Dancers will then proceed to learn specific techniques of Haitian traditional dance. Participants will gain a kinesthetic understanding of the movement techniques, the historical and cultural significance of these dances, as well as experience performance techniques for approaching the details and nuances of these dance forms.
