Dear All dance lovers,
Here's the invitation of my body percussion workshop- the first time for adults in London so I need plenty of support!
Body percussion is the dance/musical form creating different rhythms through clapping and stomping.
Ayaka would incorporate some funky moves- it is very healthy and creative dance.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccfPtipyCv4
Ayaka's workshop got really good feedback from the participants from Tribe of Doris Summer School camp and Brsifest (Bristol 2010)
So it is the great chance to experience this special, enthusiastic class!
Only bring your trainers/hard-sole shoes.
Please find the details in the attachment- also please spread the words for those who might interested in :)
You can drop in on the day, but if you could let me know your coming by aykolour_dance@hotmail.com by 10 October with quoting
'knew through adad-dance UK mailing list,' you'll receive the concession of 5pounds.
Any questions just let me know by email!!!
Warmest regards,
Ayaka
