Kevin O'Keefe
His Hip Hop Company
"True II Form"

This week will deliver dance experiences not found at other times of the year.
Fun, educational and intense; this week will not disappoint.
These teachers, recognized at the national and regional levels, will join our own Starbound company and advanced instructors in offering an eclectic and experience-expanding set of classes. From ethnic understandings and the related moves, to nuanced rhythm tap and picking up the latest in Hip Hop;
this is an opportunity for some new dance experiences.
Add to the new experiences some work on
ballet fundamentals and the other standard but difficult techniques like turns, leaps and jumps.
Broad travels and studies have given Shireen not just a knowledge of ethnic dances but an understanding of the cultures that have generated the dances she teaches.

Dance is about movement. And as cultures are different, ethnic dance employs fundamentally different movements and sensibilities. Getting
