Rachel: “What’s your favorite thing about teaching this workshop and what’s one tidbit dancers will learn at the workshop?”
Leilah: “Strength and conditioning has been a huge focus for me in particular the last few years. Regularly training and cross-training the muscles we use for dance is the only way to grow. If you want to control your turns, have sustainable, even shimmies, or dance combos in a way that looks “effortless”, there’s no secret tip or cheat code… just hard work!“
