Jocquese “SirJoQ” Whitfield • Vogue & Tone • 1:30-2:45 PM
Vogue is characterized by model-like poses, inspired by Vogue Magazine, integrated with angular, linear and rigid arm, leg and body movements. The style of dance arose from Harlem ballrooms in the early 1930s. This dance style was originally called “performance” and evolved into the more intricate and illusory form that is now called “vogue-ing”. There are six elements of Vogue-ing: hands, spins, catwalk, duck walk, dips and floor performance. Not only will you learn the history of Vogue, but you will receive a workout. Jocquese will break down each element of vogue, each has specific movements that will strengthen and tone different parts of the body.
**All Levels ** Students should wear comfy clothes and shoes, and bring a water bottle.
