NEW ARTiculations Dance Theatre

 

October 2007 Newletter (archived)
The DanceLoft celebrates its 4th Anniversary! The story of our humble beginnings (I know, we're still pretty humble...
Four years ago my husband and I were discussing our dreams for the future. As the co-director of NEW ARTiculations, a non-profit modern dance performing company, I lamented the struggle to find affordable rehearsal space or a studio we could call "home". I told him that what I really wished was that a dance studio would make NEW ART its resident company--a place where we could teach and rehearse.  My husband said, "Why don't YOU just open a studio? How hard could it be?  You just schedule classes, right?"  (to read on click here...)
The Dedicated Dancer Challenge!
Gear up-- it's coming next month!
Let's face it-- the best way to improve your dancing is to really dedicate yourself to taking classes.  Next month, The DanceLoft will be sponsoring the "Dedicated Dancer" challenge.  We challenge you to make a commitment to your dancing by taking THREE CLASSES PER WEEK FOR THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER--(or in case you're planning a vacation over Thanksgiving, a minimum of 12 classes for the month).  Buy an unlimited monthly pass ($76) and accept the Dedicated Dancer Challenge and if you succeed, we'll extend your pass by a week!  That's a sweet deal!  We'll post your name and photo on our Dedicated Dancer board (unless you don't want us to) and track your progress throughout the month so we can give you the support and encouragement you need. 
Featured Class of the Month: Pilates! 
What it is and what it can do for you
Pilates is a series of exercises that focuses on improving flexibility, strength, balance and coordination.  Joseph Pilates developed the concepts and exercises over 90 years ago and called his work Contrology.  One of the main concepts is the initiation of movement from the powerhouse or center of the body.  During his lifetime, Joseph Pilates used the exercises to rehabilitate patients in hospitals and as a method of conditioning for performers and dancers.  Most recently, Pilates has gained popularity in Hollywood and among professional athletes from golfers to football players.  The reason dancers love Pilates is because the exercises strengthen muscles without bulking, creating long, lean muscles and enabling greater ease of movement. 
 
Julia Miller, the DanceLoft's Pilates Instructor, has spent over 650 hours in Pilates teacher training programs.  As a modern dancer, she first discovered Pilates for her own training and recovery from injuries. To read her full biography, click here.
