Contemporary Feel Good Flow

/in , /by

Contemporary Feel Good Flow is drawn from Emily‘s diverse and deep movement experience in contemporary dance and waving. In this class we explore movement that is based on our functional anatomy in a way that creates space within the joints, and allows the body to expand in all directions. We will explore how to use sequential wave-like or chain-like motion to create space in the articulations, while remaining playful and expressing rhythm. This class will bring you down to the floor and back up again with grace and patience for all levels.

First Term runs Oct 29th- Dec 10th, 2025.
Fee is $140 + GST.

About Emily:

Honegger began her dance career studying and performing in Montreal. After graduating from L’École de danse contemporaine in 2005, Emily pursued training in dance styles such as Bgirling (breakdance), house, and popping. She trained at Studio Sweatshop under the mentorship of the “Solid State” Crew as well as many other accomplished street dancers in Montreal, New York and Los Angeles. Her extensive training in ballet, martial arts, contemporary dance, contact improvisation and freestyle hip hop forms influence and inform Emily’s movement style.
 
Emily danced for various Montreal-based dance companies such as Bouge de Là, Cirque Eloize, Rubberband Dance, Human Playground, and created works for stage and film with choreographic collaborator Geneviève Gagné with their collective Floor Rider & Tonik.  She has also collaborated with musical acts such as Urban Science Brass Band as a freestyle performer, and alongside her husband and life partner, musician FRASE, touring around Canada and Europe. Improvisation is an important through-line in Emily’s work, and this comes out in her approach to teaching movement. 

Since 2020, Emily’s career transitioned towards the study and practice of Osteopathy. This lens on the human body allows for a deeper and more subtle understanding of body mechanics and anatomy. She looks forward to blending an approach of wellness and health with her dance practice as she shares her movement experience.
