Modern Dance
It was a wonderful class. The teacher paid attention to each individual student and worked with me quite extensively, because I cannot dance. The instruction was simple, and by the end of it I felt like I was a little bit closer to actually having some kind of rhythm. I loved the choreography we learned, and the teacher clearly had a huge reservoir of knowledge about different dance styles, moving from Jazz to African to interpretative to hip hop. She even gave me a list of people to look up after I asked. -
