Join the choreographer, artistic director of YYDC and the creator of FoCo Technique Yue Yin on September 22nd for a 3-hour technique and phrase work workshop at New York Center For Creativity and Dance studio 5 in New York City.
Designed for pre-professional and professional dancers, the workshop requires a sophisticated understanding of fundamentals of the movement as well as well developed physical and mental stamina. The workshop will begin with a follow along FoCo Technique™ training which will engage a three-stage structure: Activating – establishing the connections between mind and body, Rooting – finding footing and building grounded awareness and Mapping – recognizing the transitions and pathways of movement. Yin will lead the participants through each segment, with an eye towards achieving precision in details, texture in movement and control in the muscle, identifying and embodying rhythm and dynamic change in movement, forming strong interactions and connection with the force of gravity.
Following the technique training, the participants will learn new choreography directly from Yin highlighting the fundamental quality of FoCo. The participants have the opportunity to experience the culture and the method of Yin’s creative process.
The fee for the workshop is $40 USD.
