This Contemporary dance series is filled with modern dance techniques, floorwork and improvisation. Enjoying the learning process with the necessary discipline and developing your own movement style is the core of the classes. There is always room for input from the group.
What will we be doing?
In Siena’s classes you will dive into various aspects of Contemporary dance such as floorwork, composition, (contact) improvisation and choreography. You will do so using different tools and Siena’s movement language, which is fluid, grounded and groovy while also awakening your own creativity and way of dancing. We focus on creating a safe and playful group dynamic – as Siena finds this one of the most important and fun aspects of dance – you will grow collectively and individually. The class always starts with a moment to ground yourself, to arrive in the space. The main goal is for you to be in the moment and to enjoy yourselves. Everyone is welcome, no matter how experienced they are.
Siena Verber, a dance artist from Amsterdam, graduated from the Academy of Dance and Theatre in 2022. She works as a freelance teacher, performer, choreographer and producer, basing her Contemporary movement language on various trainings. She is inspired by working with different bodies and experiences and creates space for collective and personal growth in her classes.

“The set-up was very nice, so we started with a good warm-up and then dance exercises, which were creative, educational and fun. We were gently guided in improvising (something that I find quite daunting) and it felt very familiar. I am very happy that I took the lessons!”
– Esmee (course participant season 2023-2024/block 2)
