LXCL:Working Class from 10am-11:30amContemporary Dance

Monday - October 26

Wednesday - October 28

Friday - October 30

CLASS DESCRIPTIONResearch&nbsp;is centred on grounding weight through the floor, accessing the horizontal plane, and generating power through complex spirals. Rooted in Shotokan Karate-Do, and inspired by Breaking, snowboarding, Modern and contemporary forms&mdash;the class develops stability as a platform for creativity by exploring momentum, counter-direction, and the efficient transfer of energy through hands and feet to create expansive movement. This practice emerges from a belief in expanding embodied expression beyond dominant aesthetics.&nbsp; Sharing alternative physical language supports artists to expand their range, encouraging the reclamation of movement, embodiment, and personal expression. BIOIsak Enquist is a choreographer, actor, dancer, and sound designer currently living in what is colonially known as Vancouver, BC.&nbsp; He has been a working dance artist for the past twelve years, as well as teaching at various institutions and facilitating classes in contemporary techniques, martial arts, violence prevention, and occasionally, aerial ropes.&nbsp; He has shared classes at Harbour Dance Centre, Lamondance, Good Women Dance Collective, F&Ocirc;VE Diffusion, and G&ouml;tesborgOperan Danskompani among many others.&nbsp;<a fr-original-style="" href="https://littleroom.ca/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; user-select: auto; box-sizing: inherit;" target="_blank">littleroom.ca</a> Photo Credits: Richie Lubaton, Lula-Belle Jedynak (website) ** If you are new to TSV, please read and fill our&nbsp;<a fr-original-style="" href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe4ckig-uUADITS9N0IF8huEGIquclyfxZHvt5KQJwButAivA/viewform" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; user-select: auto; box-sizing: inherit;" target="_blank">TSV Consent &amp; Liability Form</a><p fr-original-style="line-height:1.2;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;width:100%;box-sizing:inherit;color:rgb(15, 14, 91);" style="line-height: 1.2; margin: 0pt 0px; width: 100%; box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(15, 14, 91);"><span fr-original-style="color:rgb(117, 117, 117);font-family:Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0.25px;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline !important;box-sizing:inherit;" style="color:rgb(117, 117, 117);font-family:Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0.25px;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline !important;box-sizing:inherit;">**By purchasing a class, You hereby release to Training Society of Vancouver the rights to all photography and video recordings that may be taken during classes and workshops for promotional use.
