Ballet for Contemporary Dancers
Sun Xiaojun’s class focuses on helping dancers discover the natural impulse of their own bodies, overcome obstacles, and in doing so learn to trust and believe in themselves. The class combines the precision and structure of ballet with an approach that supports contemporary dancers in developing clarity, strength, and freedom in their movement.
