Ready to get down and dirty with the science behind Heels dance? Join our Program Director, Fiona Matthews and special guests for this mind-meets-body Intensive, where we sustainably explore the anatomy, physics, and technique behind Heels Dance over several juicy weeks in a row.

While we will definitely get moving, this 4-week experience is more about deeply understanding dance versus the high-intensity exhaustion of traditional “bootcamp” intensives. Dancers will fluctuate between observing, note taking, and physically applying themselves as we explore some of the most intriguing aspects of Heels. Each week will be a mix of concepts, conversations, case studies, and of course - dance!

Just a few of our featured topics include:

- Grooves & the stories behind them
- Musicality & movement pathways
- Scientific approaches to stretching
- Physics behind a powerful strut
- Neurodynamics in dance
- Anatomy of the “wow factor”
- Troubleshooting common Heels hiccups

Your brain, heart, and body will be bursting with knowledge after this immersive camp for dancers excited to “nerd out” about Heels Dance. So grab your notebook, your most purpose-built heels (flexible sole), and get ready to have your mind blown by not one - but FOUR Heels dance experts.
