Participants will have the optional opportunity to perform at Still and Moving Center\u2019s \u201cMerry and Bright\u201d celebration on Sunday, December 13!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This series explores the fundamental movements and body awareness at the heart of Contemporary Modern Dance. Open to all levels, each class includes warm-ups, structured improvisation, across-the-floor combinations, and choreography designed to help you discover the joy, freedom, and expressive power of movement. Whether you’re building a strong foundation or refining more advanced technique and artistry, each dancer will be supported at their individual level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through mindful movement and creative exploration, you’ll deepen your body awareness, strengthen the connection between mind and movement, and discover new ways to express yourself. This class encourages you to explore your unique movement potential while cultivating confidence, presence, and authenticity, both as a dancer and as a human being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elizabeth Lentz-Hill<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elizabeth\u2019s students love the joy, humor and freedom of expression in her classes. Her classes inspire students to think about dance and life in new, exciting ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elizabeth grew up in Hawai\u02bbi and is happy to be home, dancing in the place she loves, after more than twenty years of experience performing, teaching, choreographing and promoting dance. She has toured France, Brazil, Mexico, and the U.S. with Tennessee Dance Theatre, Chicago Moving Company, Lucky Plush Productions, and Breakbone DanceCo., and performed works by Bill T. Jones, Doug Elkins, Twyla Tharp, and Charles Weidman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to returning to Hawai\u02bbi in 2018, Elizabeth co-founded two dance companies and two regional dance festivals on the continent, one to promote modern dance in Chicago and one for 7-12th grade dancers and their dance educators in Mississippi. She served as an Associate Professor of Dance at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM), where she taught ballet, modern, dance education, anatomy, choreography, and dance theory classes. While at USM, Elizabeth worked to bridge the Dance and Theatre Departments, including co-creating a full-length devised theatre work with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts and serving as Interim Chair for both departments. She holds a BA in Religion with a concentration in Women\u2019s Studies from Carleton College, and an MFA in Dance from the University of Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMs. Lentz-Hill has effervescence, an inner glow, and an absolute belief in what she is presenting in the studio. There is an indefinable type of energy that leaps from her to her students. These qualities projected not only from Ms. Lentz-Hill but also from the students in the residency as they worked with her. The dancers left her sessions with knowledge of a dynamic energy, knowing they had something of value to contribute to the community around them so much greater than an ability to be a technically sound dancer. To paraphrase a student in the residency \u2013 working with Ms. Lentz-Hill was not just a lesson in technique, it was a lesson in life! \u201c \u2013 Mid-Pacific Institute<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
