Online Progressing Contemporary (PCT) Workshop with Adam Blanch and Annabelle Knight&nbsp;Designed for teachers of any form of dance as well as Pilates &amp; Yoga instructors who wish to learn dance technique through the Progressing Contemporary Technique method developed by Adam Blanch.&nbsp;Progressing Contemporary Technique is an innovative program created by Adam Blanch in conjunction with Progressing Ballet Technique, devised as a series of functional exercises to help you explore and develop freedom of movement. To bring awareness to the importance of finding articulation through your body and allowing that discovery to give you an enhanced sense of mobility in contemporary dance. &nbsp;The PCT workshop has been structured in a format to allow the students to organically develop their contemporary technique through a progressive structure of exercises. These exercises will be broken down by Adam in much detail offering insights as to the function of each exercise, muscular utilisation/awareness/benefits, musicality and appropriate use of breath. Understanding how and why each PCT exercise adds value in Contemporary dance training and other dance and movement forms will also be explored during the workshop.&nbsp; Participants will have the opportunity to practice teach each exercise giving them the correct articulation and confidence they require to teach the program in their own teaching environments. The workshop will conclude with an in-depth questions and answers session.&nbsp; Why complete a PCT teachers workshop?You will learn functional contemporary class exercises that coincide with the PCT syllabus’&nbsp;&nbsp;<ul class="ul1"><li class="li2">Gain a greater understanding of body awareness</li><li class="li2">You will be well equipped to start teaching PCT right away after the one-day course.</li><li class="li2">You will have a unique &amp; effective way to help your students improve their technique.</li><li class="li2">It will benefit you as a teacher by adding to your skills &amp; qualifications to further understand finding freedom of movement.</li><li class="li2">You will receive a certificate &amp; can claim 6hrs CPD for your time spent at the course.</li><li class="li2">See your students improve after only one lesson &amp; continue to observe their incredible progress.</li></ul> &nbsp;Outcomes: &nbsp;<ul class="ul1"><li class="li2">A deeper connection with and understanding of the importance of core strength and stability to enhance movement range.</li><li class="li2">An understanding of the correct muscle groups that assist each movement.</li><li class="li2">An enhancement of spinal mobility awareness to provide a sense of freedom and release of movement as well as enhancing contraction articulation.</li><li class="li2">A continued understanding of the relevance and importance of safe resistance stretching and strengthening for further development.</li><li class="li2">An understanding of the variations of transfer of weight and giving weight.</li><li class="li2">An understanding of the importance of safe and consistent floor transitions and enhanced connection with the floor. &nbsp;</li><li class="li2">A broader understanding of the importance of musicality throughout each exercise allowing for a fluid movement quality with no tension or strain.</li><li class="li2">An understanding of and connection with a consistent use of breath to deepen stretches, assist with contraction and expansion, and allow for a freer range of movement.</li><li class="li2">An understanding of how to modify or enhance an exercise to suit appropriate age and levels.</li><li class="li2">An understanding of how to construct a contemporary class exercise using the fundamentals of the PCT syllabus.</li></ul> &nbsp;At the completion of the workshop, you will be able to bring PCT into your classroom and have the ability to advertise Progressing Contemporary Technique (PBT) and your own PCT classes on our class directory. &nbsp;Secure your tickets now!
