Bill Evans

Don't miss this wonderful and rare opportunity!
Bill Evans Laban-Based Modern Dance Technique offers dancers tools for self-discovery and positive change. Each class integrates patterns from Bartenieff Fundamentals and allows participants to bring their personal uniqueness to
movement investigations through the Body, Effort, Shape and Space lenses of Laban Movement Anlysis. Evans has built on the classical styles of modern dance (Nikolais, Graham, Limon and Cunningham) he studied as a young
professional as well the dynamics, precision and freedom of rhythm tap, which he has performed since childhood.

Thursday December 13th

He has a fluent, lovely understanding of movement which he conveys very well. He has enormous loyalty and everywhere he goes to teach, people come flocking." -- Daniel Nagrin

Many of his former company members have gone on to make significant contributions to the art of dance performance, both onstage and through dance education, in studios, colleges and universities." --Virginia Wilmerding, Former President, International Association for Dance Medicine and Science

"Evans has devoted his life to developing his own technique. Students from all over the country flock to Evans to understand his way of moving, which integrates his intensive study of kinesiology and anatomy with training in ballet, jazz, tap and modern. His work lives and breathes at the literally hundreds of schools, studios,
universities, colleges, high schools and companies where Evans has taught, performed and choreographed." --Susie Eley, Dance Teacher Magazine
