BOXING FOR DANCERS
Specialty Cross-Training Workshop

*Exclusively for Luminesque students*

by Fiona Matthews & Calvin Carbonell

Level: All levels (dance & boxing) welcome

Date: Saturday, July 26 @ 4-6pm

Location: Monarc Boxing, 79 W 3rd Ave, Vancouver

Price: $45

Tap into your power, speed and rhythm in a whole new non-dance modality in this two-hour cross-training workshop by everyone's favourite dream duo: Fiona & Calvin. Designed specifically for Luminesque dancers - this unique experience will help you map full-body awareness, and learn how to “attack” movement with precision, while staying grounded and safe.

You’ll be introduced to fundamental boxing techniques in a fun, supportive environment - think punches, pads, heavy bag drills and boxing-inspired conditioning - while also exploring the mental and emotional release that this movement practice can unlock. Throughout the workshop, Fiona and Calvin will invite you to get curious about how the skills and sensations of boxing can inform your dance performance, artistry and personal expression. We'll wrap with a chance to connect and reflect on the experience as a group.

If you’re curious about how cross-training can complement your dance journey and want to feel strong, agile and embodied - join Fiona and Calvin for BOXING FOR DANCERS at Monarch Boxing on July 26 from 4-6pm. Please bring water, a notebook, and gloves/wraps if you have them (some will be available to borrow).
