This high-energy Fosse class dives into the iconic style made famous by Bob Fosse where every rolled shoulder, sharp wrist, and perfectly timed pause tells a story. Students will get the chance to explore classic Fosse technique, including precision movement, musicality, isolations, character-driven choreography, and that unmistakable cool confidence that makes this style so thrilling to watch. This class will explore storytelling through movement and developing a strong sense of style while staying age-appropriate and empowering. Perfect for dancers who love musical theatre, and performance with attitude! No experience is necessary, just a willingness to learn and try new things. If you’re ready to sharpen your technique, expand your performance skills, and bring a little Broadway bite to RCSA… this is the class! Jazz shoes or character heels are encouraged but are not required.
