Coming September 2016 - Contemporary Dance and Movement Fundamentals
All Levels, Ages 12 and up


Salish Sea Ballet is excited to bring contemporary dance to our studio!  This fall, join Caitlin Ross for a fun and accessible contemporary dance class.  We are offering a special introductory rate of just $60 for the month of September - contact us to register today!  This class must meet minimum enrollment by September 5th.

Investigate movement patterning and contemporary dance technique through the use of strength building exercises and choreographed phrasework. Developed around the idea that the most expressive dancer is one with a deep knowledge of the way their individual body moves, this class inspires dancers to explore movement from within and challenge their body to its own greatest, ongoing, and ever-changing potential. Modifications for individual needs are provided and encouraged.


Caitlin Ross is a dancer and ceramic artist, based in Friday Harbor, WA. She holds a BA in Dance from the University of Washington, and has performed in works choreographed by artists such as Molly Scott, Rachael Lincoln, and Bruce McCormick. Her porcelain tableware has been exhibited in galleries across the United States, including The Kellogg Art Gallery, Charlie Cummings Gallery, and by the MWSU Clay Guild.
