Last week our older dancers had their Summer Intensive learning from Alyssa’s daughter, Serena Herschleb, who grew up dancing at Current Rhythms. We are delighted she chose to return to her home town studio to share what she’s been learning at Western Washington University in their dance department with our dancers. They were up for the challenge and now have a new piece to perform for theirs next Showcase. It’s hard to believe we’ll be starting our 28th season in the fall. We’re now teaching our students’ children and having former students teach classes too! Our small town studio seems grander thinking about all the connections being made and branching out. The studio will be taking a break until August with the occasional pop up yoga. Enjoy the rest of your summer! ☀️ #dance #dancer #summerdancecamp #summerintensive #generations #inspireothers

Pirouette on pointe. Not an easy feat! Dancer Morgan Saiget is well on her way now to master this move on pointe. So, what does a dancer need to approach this turn, you wonder? 😧Overcome fear of not only pressing up on one leg, but rotating on it as well. 💪🏼Enough ankle, leg, core strength to balance in a turn. 🎧Full body focus and awareness. 🧠Perfect alignment. 💍 Complete engagement of every single muscle group in the body! 👏🏼 @morgansaiget ! 🩰🩰🩰 #pointe #pointedancer #pirouette

We’re 3 days in to the Summer Dance Intensive! Dancers are learning lots of contemporary technique and will have a new piece to share when the week is over. 👏🏼 ☀️👯‍♂️☀️ #summerdancecamp #dance #contemporarytechnique #contemporary #welovedance

Secret Garden Camp finished up with mud flat and ski hill adventures. We even found some blooming water lilies right here in Cordova. 🪷 Campers let us know that the people, the adventures, and the dancing were their highlights of camp this year. We loved their creativity, curiosity, and camaraderie 👩‍🎨🧐👯‍♂️ We’ll see you next summer! We hope you enjoy the rest of your summer break! 😎 🪷🌱🪷🌱🪷 #summer #summercamp #summerdancecamp #summerdance #secretgarden #monet #monetwaterlilies

First day of Theater Arts camp and these actors were ready for everything we threw at them! We can’t wait to see how they develop their characters and relationships throughout the week! 🎭🎬🎭

We’ve expanded the age group for our Summer Theater Arts Camp! Now, campers rising grades 6& up can join in the summer fun! Theater classes allow participants to enter new worlds, take on different personalities, and work as a team. Our young actors transform both outwardly and inwardly. We love to watch their metamorphosis! Those who are normally shy become courageous. Those who are normally unsure become confident. This art form certainly stretches beyond the stage and into each actor’s lives. Have your young, aspiring thespian join us this summer and watch their evolution!

Here’s a spot of sunshine for you! 👏🏼☀️🌳

Hard to believe our classes are already wrapping up for this session! We’ve been so busy moving and creating to stop and post about all the fun we’ve been having in our classes! Our Urban Ninja classes were up for not only one Ninja Challenge, but they took it all the way to the Double Double Ninja Challenge! We love seeing how these movers are learning to work together as a team, to lift each other up, support each other, and observe each other so they can try new things that challenge themselves. We’ve seen an incredible amount of growth in strength, both physically and mentally, in these energetic students. We’re looking forward to more! Most classes are ending this week. Be sure to check your emails as not all classes are on the same schedule. Leave us a ❤️ or comment below 👇 about what you’ve noticed in growth of your mover this fall. We love to hear how dance and movement ripple out into our students’ lives. ❤️ #ninjas #challenge #doublechallenge #growth
