The Malashock Dance studio is buzzing with the energy of the next generation of up-and-coming dancers! The Malashock Dance Summer Intensive is filling the studio with the sound of dancer’s feet brushing, sliding and pounding the studio floor accompanied by the evocative musical selections of their choreographers. These young dancers are eager to learn and ready to move. Their attention is focused and their bodies are instruments of expression, waiting to “upload” the latest choreographic explorations of the faculty. Their willingness to become as vulnerable as clay before a sculptor is quite inspiring, and by the end of the first day of classes, the group of 20 dancers transformed from complete strangers to intimate partners who were lifting, catching, and taking risks with one another. When challenged to reach beyond what they think they can achieve, and given the tools and support to take healthy risks, dancers will transform. They transform their body, their idea of what is possible, the choreography, and even the staff and faculty who facilitate their experience.
I am looking forward to seeing these young talents take the stage on July 17 at the Saville Theater at San Diego City College to perform the repertory and new works developed during these two very intense weeks with Malashock Dance!
