Saturday, 5 March, 2011 Thomas Nelson Community College, Newport News VA 9:00 - 11:00 Workshop with Onça: (2hrs) Raks Vaudevillia: Foxy or Folkloric? It's all how you handle the big stick. Cane, or 'Raks Assaya', is a traditional woman's dance art that offers tremendous creative expression to Fusion, Burlesque, and Vaudeville artists. Building on the belly dance vocabulary, we drill sustainable cane technique and explore combos with attitude. Great for developing both troupe precision and the theatrical face of fusion. 12:00 - 3:00pm Workshop with Jill Parker: (3hrs) Ooey Gooey Slow & Slinky In addition to Jill's unparalleled mentoring skills, she's famous for her super stylized, slinky, sensuous, muscular movements. In this workshop Jill coaches you through drills, adding technical insights, answering questions and proving you with tools for unlocking even the most difficult concepts. Bring your slow movements to deeper, more fluid, juicier, graceful, soulful level. You'll find Jill's workshop environment challenging, focused, encouraging and most of all FUN!
