Freespace Dance Festival -- Join in Movement in August

Yes, the dog days of summer are here!  Did you keep your family's August schedule open for inspiring, creative fun?  Are you looking to fill some time before the September routine begins?

Hosted by Freespace Dance, a professional modern dance company, Freespace Summer Festival is the perfect opportunity to quench your thirst for movement this August.  Taught by Freespace dancers and guest artists, at Montclair State University, dancers thirteen years old or older will participate in classes in Ballet, Modern, Jazz and Yoga.

Starting Monday, August 5th, the festival is 3 weeks long ending Thursday, August 22nd.   Each day begins at 10am and ends at 3pm.  Dancers can participate in the Freespace Dance Festival for the full 3 weeks ($500), one week ($225) or for daily classes ($20).   For registration information click here.

A performance will display the repertory pieces taught to the dancers during the festival.  The show will feature students and Freespace Dance company members on Friday, August 23, 2013 at 8pm at the Oskar Shindler Performing Arts Center at Montclair State University.

 Freespace Dance is a contemporary modern dance company renowned for creating emotionally driven work, with a bold athletic signature style.  Comprised of eight exceptionally strong performers, this vibrant company uses controlled abandonment in pushing the limits of inventive partnering.

Artistic Director of Freespace Dance, Donna Scro, has toured professionally as a dance artist for the past twenty years with Nikolais/ Louis Dance Company and as a founding member of Sean Curran Company.

Many of us here in Montclair know Donna Scro as a graceful and kind Anusara-Inspired yoga teacher, who encourages her students with an open heart.

This August, explore the creative movements of dance and yoga with Freespace Summer Festival.
