JUST DANCE

8-week series lead by Dominic Giambra

4/15 —— Monday 6/3

Drop-in, ALL-LEVELS (no training needed)
Donation-based / PWYC.


Just Dance is a class for all people who find joy in moving their bodies. This class requires no previous experience or training, but does require an open mind and a smile! In each session we will begin with body-centering / stretching / warm up exercises. We will explore methods of connecting our mind to our movement, and end each class with a movement-based prompt, culminating in an open dance partay!!! Concepts for exercises will be pulled from numerous dance genres, improv, musical theater, and yoga. The goal of this class is to find pleasure in moving our bodies, and grow more comfortable exploring the vast potential in movement expression… Join us!!

Dominic Giambra is a dancer and yoga teacher who grew up in Buffalo NY, and is happy to now be back, dancing and teaching in that community.

Dance and movement have been central to Dominic’s self expression since he was young, performing in high school musicals and choirs. He now trains, and teaches musical theater at Configuration School of Ballet.

Dominic has worked throughout the WNY community as a performer and choreographer, and recently began teaching yoga after completing a 200 hour YTT with Heal Buffalo. He is one of the five organizers of MOVI, a dance organization used to highlight talent in the WNY dance community. Dominic is excited to use his expertise to formulate Just Dance class, and share the benefits of movement and dance with all bodies, without the prerequisite or stress of a classical structure.
