The Pivot Center for Art, Dance and Expression
Free intermediate/advanced level masterclass with Dominic Moore-Dunson! For dancers ages 14 and up. The Get Down is choreographer Dominic Moore-Dunson's evolving movement language, rooted in the rhythms, gestures, and embodied knowledge we develop long before formal dance training. Through improvisation, phrase work, and creative exploration, participants will investigate how groove, weight, rhythm, and storytelling can deepen contemporary dance practice. This class invites dancers to reconnect with the movement knowledge they already possess while discovering new pathways for authentic expression
