The workshop is comprised of a two hour technique class
followed by three hours of repertory. Mr. Byrd’s movement
aesthetics emphasize a relaxed, strong and flexible torso
with sharp and highly articulated feet and legs. The technique
portion of the workshop is designed to enhance this usage
of the body, as well as increase rhythmic and spatial exactness.
With this focus on accuracy, the dancer becomes more efficient
and effective in the management of energy and more able
to control the visual, emotional and physical impact of
their body moving.
