….I don’t totally know ‘why’ as I think the reasons for enjoying a Jam are very individual.
I love learning and trying to improve in classes or workshops, but time or a space to explore, practise or just forget all and dance completely freely is hard to find.
So for me this is a chance to just dance.
So my ‘why’ is dancing in the same space as others and feeling that freedom and joy I get from dance.
What dancing might be for others is a creative question asked in EncoreEast’s project Home from Home. The 50 dancers have been asked “Why do you dance?”. You can see some answers on our Insta @encoreeastdance
What’s easier to answer is ‘what’.
– 90 minutes in a big space to dance as you want to as much as you want to.
– to dance on your own or with others when you want to.
– a varied playlist with music you’ll know/some you won’t know, giving you time to warm up, dance your heart out and then cool yourself down.
– to try out whatever dance style you might want to explore, try a phrase you’ve learnt with different music or just dance freely for fun.
