MORE INFORMATION

BEGINNING New to dance or to hip-hop dance.

INTERMEDIATE Dancers with some hip-hop dance experience and/or have been training with In Motion Dance before. 

*BEGINNING dancer who can only participate in one day/week please email Jessica at jwolfmotion@gmail.com. 

*INTERMEDIATE dancers are highly recommended to participate in both classes/week. If you would like to discuss this more please contact Jessica at jwolfmotion@gmail.com. 

*BRIDGING OPTIONS are available for those who are seeking a more engaged/integrative dance experience. Bridging would include taking both Beginning/Intermediate and Intermediate +Plus+. 

Considerations and approval will be case by case. I do encourage all dancers to participate two days/week to get the most out of their experience. 

Intermediate +Plus+. This bridging model meets the Physical Education requirements for Berkeley High School and perhaps other schools.

Questions? jwolfmotion@gmail.com

INTERMEDIATE +PLUS+ Dancers who have been training in the program for over a year, are ready to take their training to the next level, strengthen their foundations, inspire as an artist and so much more. More information below.

Winter/Spring 2020 Mentorship Program - one day a week Milah Gammon, rising choreographer and Bay Area Teacher will be teaching the two classes. I will be supporting her before entering the room and while in the room. We have a great program set up for you. 

*more information about Milah coming soon 

CLASS DESCRIPTION:

Beginning Hip Hop engages the dancer’s body, mind and expression to mobilize the individual’s authentic movement. Introduces alignment through stretching, embodied musicality, and isolations. Dancers will learn foundational hip hop dance moves, gain an understanding of hip hop culture, and build their dance vernacular. Dancers will build skills focused on individual expression, learn and retain choreography, work together to build community and create movement collectively. Dancers will have the opportunity to perform together and develop their freestyle. 

In Motion Dance is a safe, friendly and supportive dance environment. 

Beginning/Intermediate Hip Hop  gives the dancers an opportunity to deepen their embodied understanding of hip hop dance and culture from their previous dance experience and continue to build strength, alignment, intermediate vocabulary, foundations, musicality, and isolations of the body. Intermediate dancers will have the opportunity to step in front of the class as leaders, to lead warm-ups, sharing their creativity, voice and choreography with their peers. Dancers will continue to feel more confident with the material they learned as beginners and will be able to add layers to their understanding and expression. Dancers will receive material to develop through more complex choreography and formation placement. 

In Motion Dance is a safe, friendly and supportive dance environment. 

Intermediate +Plus+ Hip Hop utilizes hip hop aesthetics in a co-creative, collaborative and experiential learning environment. We will further develop individual and collaborative embodied wisdom through technique and drills, strength and alignment, choreography and performance while developing both a hip hop choreography dance piece AND a self revelatory, social and emotion piece to share with others. Classroom discussions, themes and choreographic processes will be guided in class. Dancers will practice leadership by do-designing and co-guiding the flow of classes, developing as dancers, and create the vision of our final performance piece. 

Jessica Wolf directs, supports, and holds the dancers through this process. Dancers are asked to commit to 85% of their enrollment missing only three classes. Be strongly committed to in & outside class communication. As well as respecting, caring and honoring themselves, each other and the environment.

In Motion Dance is a safe, friendly and supportive dance environment. 

PRICING:

Class and workshop pricing is subject to change on a semester-by-semester basis, at the discretion of J.Wolf Motion. A $35 non-refundable registration fee is included in class tuition. No refunds or transfers will be made after January 24, 2020.

TRIALS: 

$25/class - $75/3 classes paid at once

Jessica strongly recommends a 3-class series when trying a new class. This will allow dancers to more deeply learn about what their bodies, minds and spirits can do while in motion. A one-time trial can feel overwhelming, and she is confident that after 3 classes, dancers will know if her class is right for them. 

· After a 3-class trial, dancers must decide whether or not they will enroll in the full session.

· Multiple 3-class trials cannot be purchased for the same class and dancer. 

· If, after the trial, a dancer enrolls in the full session, their trial payment will be applied/pro-rated towards the full amount of tuition. 

No drop-in classes available.
