HEATHER CORNELL

The theme for 2023

"Collaboration"

​

Week One: June 19 - 23, 2023

"Connecting to our Roots"

Heather studied and performed with a number of the masters of the tap dance renaissance.  How do we carry this connection forward in a way that honors their work and their artistry and gives permanence to their legacy?  We'll look at their work and teaching styles and reflect on how we can bring their creativity into focus.

 

 

Week Two:  June 26 - 30, 2023

"Basics of Physical Percussion"

We'll look at how music and dance live in our creative beings and our physical bodies and at how they naturally interact.  We'll play with exercises to enhance the polyrhythmic nature of who we are and how we, as physical musicians, collaborate with other musicians.

​

​

Week Three: July 3 - 7, 2023

"The way forward"

How does music and dance connect in our pedagogy and how can we best teach ourselves and others to be in constant collaboration with all the elements that define us as dancer/musicians
