It is recommended to have at least 3 years of ballet and/or contemporary  dance experience but if you do not\, please reach out to discuss your options. \n2 pm – 4 pm – Contemporary \nThe contemporary floor work class will primarily focus on getting your movements onto the floor with fluidity that includes elevations\, inversions and traveling movements that integrate various levels of stretch and elasticity.

This class will finish with a culmination of choreography adapted from one of Alayna’s Toronto Fringe shows. \nWorkshop Rates: \n1 Workshop – $30 \n2 Workshops – Buy one get one 50% off – $45 \n*All prices are inclusive of HST.  \n\n \n\n\n\n\nAlayna Kellett Workshops\n\n\nOne Workshop $30.00 CADTwo Workshops $45.00 CAD\n\n\n\n\n \n\n  \nInstructor Bio: \nAlayna is a professional dancer\, producer\, choreographer\, adjudicator and model\, having graduated from Ryerson University with a BFA in the Performance: Dance program.
