SUMMARY:4-Week Progressive Session 1 - Direction Changes
DESCRIPTION:SCD is excited to announce two four-week progressive contemporary sessions coming up this Spring focusing on Direction Changes and Turns! \nThese classes will be led by Chrissy Baxter and Jaqui Brown. These sessions are progressive so attendance at all four weeks is recommended but not required. Pre-registration is not required and drop-ins are welcome. \nThese classes will consist of floor-work\, centre practice\, travelling work\, and movement combinations. Classes are open to teens (14+) and adults and will be taught at an intermediate level. \nClass will begin with a warm-up designed to bring everyone into collective movement. We will learn sequences of movement embracing direction changes and turns. \nThroughout each class we will work to open space in the body while strengthening alignment and the core muscles to hold the body together. \nWe believe that class is a place to come together as a community while also being a place to challenge the body and we hope you will join us! \nSession 1 – 4-Week Progressive – Direction Change\nSundays\, April 12 – May 3\, 11 AM – 12:15 PM \nLocation: Official Dance Project – 680 Bayview Dr\, Barrie\, ON

SUMMARY:Momentum
DESCRIPTION:Momentum is a mixed program contemporary dance performance that invites performers and audience members to acknowledge our stories. Through movement\, we explore the powerful forces that shape our lives from grief to joy and everything in between. \nThis show is rooted in the belief that storytelling through dance is a way for us all to connect. Each piece in our program offers a glimpse into the human experience. These works are deeply personal and we hope that you can see yourself throughout. \nAs performers\, we are bringing our truest selves to the stage. These choreographies are shaped not only by steps but by the emotions we feel and the stories we carry. In this way\, Momentum becomes more than a performance it becomes a mirror. \nWe all carry stories and by sharing ours\, we remember that we are not alone. Let us move and be moved.

SUMMARY:Interplay Improv Jams
DESCRIPTION:As part of Culture Days\, Interplay Improv Jam creates a space for the dynamic exchange of sound\, movement\, and live visual art creation. Designed to challenge and expand the boundaries of each artistic medium and create a continuous cycle of inspiration and response. \nInterplay Improv Jam is a casual\, open-ended jam session where musicians\, dancers\, and visual artists can come together to play\, move\, and make art in real time. It’s all about listening\, responding\, and letting different forms of expression influence each other. This event aims to be a welcoming space where creativity flows and collaborations happen naturally. Whether you’re jamming on an instrument\, moving through space\, or sketching what you see and feel\, there’s room for you at the Interplay Improv Jam! \nCome as you are. Bring what you love. Let’s see what unfolds as movement meets melody\, and art comes alive in the moment. This isn’t a performance – it’s a space for spontaneous collaboration between art forms. \nOpen to all levels and backgrounds. Come to create\, observe\, or simply vibe. Space is limited and registration is recommended. \nInterplay Improv Jam was created in partnership with the MacLaren Art Centre and Simcoe Contemporary Dancers. This activity is funded by the City of Barrie for Culture Days 2025.
