If you’ve ever watched the interpretive sequence set to Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time” at the end of Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion and thought, I wish I could express myself through dance, here’s your opportunity. The Miami Contemporary Dance Company is offering a special summer course. At the Freedom of More Modern Movement workshop, Catrina Choate and Ana Mendez will guide students of all levels to new heights of physical eloquence.

“It’s a very healthy workshop. Catrina is an amazing teacher of the Feldenkrais method, and Ana’s got a strong understanding of structured improvisation within dance,” explains artistic director Ray Sullivan. Students will begin with the basics and, by the class’s end, convene in a choreographed sequence. On Saturday, August 26, participants can show off at an informal recital followed by an all-out dance party. A single class costs $15, and payment is accepted in cash only.
Mon., Aug. 21, 7-8:30 p.m.
