Class Description: Come harness your confidence on camera! Dancing for the camera can feel daunting and is a skill in and of itself that we don’t often get to practice in the confines of a drop-in dance class.

We know that and we’ve got you!

Whether you want to get high quality footage for your reel, spice up your socials, work on your heels skills, or practice performing for the camera,
this Intensive is for you!

With this new, extended class format, you’ll have the opportunity to: 

  • Retain, rehearse, and refine the choreography,

  • Increase your confidence on camera,

  • Elevate your showmanship,

  • Explore your personal dance style,

  • Learn camera performance tips from your Choreographer & Videographer, and

  • Develop your on-camera performance skills.

Registration includes:

  • 2 sessions totaling 4 hours over 2 days, comprised of

  • 3 hours of dance instruction with Adrianna Poindexter, learning 1 piece of Heels choreography,

  • 1 hour of filming (opportunities for solo & small groups), and

  • Access to videos filmed & edited by Purple Fox Productions.

Here's what to expect: 

Saturday

We’ll begin with a warm-up and jump right into learning the combination to be filmed. No filming will take place this day! This time will be solely focused on teaching, drilling and cleaning the combination so that we can feel good going into our filming day. We’ll also discuss clothing options, and some tips for performing for the camera.

Sunday

Shoot day! We’ll begin with a warm-up, then review the combo to make sure it’s nice and fresh in our brains, and answer any final questions. You’ll then have 10 minutes to change into your video outfit and touch-up your hair and makeup looks. We’ll film the combo in groups of 3, and each group will have the opportunity to film 3 times. If there is still time at the end, we’ll do duos and/or solo videos. The combo will have some floorwork.

Level Description: This is an Advanced Beginner level intensive. Some dance experience is recommended for this level. If you have at least 1 to 3 years of dance experience, or you have many years of experience but have not danced for a long time, this level could be a good fit for you. Additionally, if you are newer to dance and have tried the beginner classes but they feel too easy, yet the intermediate classes feel too challenging, this level is for you. f you haven’t danced in a few years and want to step back into it and build confidence, this level may be a good fit for you.Class will have a focus on choreography, however you may review the basic and foundational steps of the style within the framework of the combination taught in class. You will most likely not learn how to execute basic and foundational steps within this level. Choreography will be taught at a slower to moderate pace with a clear breakdown and instruction, and you may see minimal technical elements (such as leaps and turns) and floorwork. Choreography will be around 30-50 seconds in length, with low to moderate complexity and slow to moderate tempos. Movements within the choreography will most likely repeat.
