Meet the awesome teachers that will be contributing their invaluable time and effort into making madsoc’s semester 2 weekly classes a ⭐️ SMASHING
SUCCESS ⭐️

Reminder: Classes are held at📍Elliot Miller Studio📍
on the bottom floor of the Holme Building

let’s hear what our talented teachers have to say about what to expect during their weekly classes…

🤍 Indianna’s musical theatre

“I will do a warm up every week which may be slightly different to a usual dance warm up. They may be a bit more experimental and interpretive as musical theatre is also acting and creating characters/storylines. Technique will be included and also a short combo each week/every two weeks. I would expect a class a bit outside the ordinary, to lean into the musical theatre world.”

🤍 Jess B’s jazz/funk/hip hop

“Students should expect regular warm ups, technique/grooves + weekly combos in a fun and supportive environment 🕺”

🤍 Christy’s strength and conditioning

“Students please BYO resistance bands and towels, we will be using these to strengthen the muscles and techniques we use in dance. The exercises are based on ballet technique, but is useful for all dancers with modifications provided for different levels! Finishing off with 1 or 2 ballet combos to consolidate that feeling in our bodies we worked so hard on.”

🤍 Rohhan’s bollywood hip hop

“Students can expect a balance of technique and choreography in my class. We’ll build strong foundations through drills, progressions, and musicality exercises before putting everything together into fun, high-energy Bolly Hip-Hop combos. My goal is to make everyone feel confident and comfortable with the different movements the style demands.”

🤍 Jess T’s kpop

“Throughout the semester, I will teach dances from 2nd-5th gen Kpop, focusing mainly on chorus and bridge sections. Every class I will start with a short warm up and the slowly break down around 20-40 seconds of choreo, teaching pose by pose in detail in order to have a completed combo by the end of class. I will leave time to film at the end so you can show off your newly learned skill to your friends.”

🤍 Sofia’s modern contemporary

“Everyone should expect new combos f
