Workshop Topics
Masterclasses for intermediate/advanced students
Presence of the Priestess
A Stage Presence Masterclass Powerful stage presence is the mark of any amazing performer, yet it can be so difficult to pin down and understand exactly what it is. In this class we will be using moving meditation, visualisation and goddess embodiment techniques to craft an expansive, powerful, full stage presence, really getting into what stage presence is all about: being present. |
Bringing Sexy Back
A masterclass on how to be sexy onstage. Demelza Fox is known for her outrageously sexy stage persona, and in this concept based workshop she takes you through different techniques, plays and concepts to be able to access that sexy part of your own performance persona.. "One of the best workshops I've done - come back to London and do more! You are such a fun teacher!" Sarah Stone |
Intermediate level workshops
Invoking Morgana Le Fey: A Sacred Dance Workshop

I like it Hard, Fast and Sweaty
A straight out, down and dirty drilling workshop. Non-stop belly-dance technique and conditioning set to an fist-pumping soundtrack. We'll play with layering, travelling, tricksy little lock and drill combos and have a chat about how to keep dance practice feeling like fun while we have a breather. Be a belly dancing boss.
Stairway to Heaven
A musicality and technique workshop based solely on the music of Led Zeppelin. Rock on!
