Posted on June 4, 2013 by Jaela Hall Posted in Around Town, Dance, Get Involved | Comments Off

When thinking of nature’s four elements, some are reminded of spirituality in ancient history. Or maybe they think of their favorite tribe from a popular Nickelodeon television show. Possibly even a certain famous soul group of from the 70′s and 80′s. Well for anyone in the Chicago dance scene, you think about Chicago’s contemporary ballet company, The Elements.

Using the four elements of nature as a basis for creating unique and high caliber new works, this company has come to develop an original, distinctive style all its own and take the ballet world by storm. Sound amazing?

Well, with the Elements Summer Workshop, you, too, have an opportunity to be a part of the magic . It is a rigorous 3-day ballet intensive at Chicago’s Visceral Dance Center based in the unique “Four Elements” training method:

Earth – Physicality: Strength and flexibility conditioning
Air – Focus: Precise technique and execution of line
Water – Freedom: Movement exploration through guided improvisation
Fire – Expression:  Endurance and performance quality

Do not miss this once in a year chance to dance with Chicago’s only contemporary ballet company and greatly develop your abilities!
