Join Cleveland Dance Project for a Pom class (no pom experience required, but held for int/adv dancers with jazz technique) with Paige St John! Sunday 6/12 11:30am-1pm Above The Barre (1450 W Bagley location) $15 with preregistration at www.clevelanddanceproject.com/classes If Jazz and Cheerleading had a baby, it would be called Pom! Pom challenges both your artistry and athleticism using swift tempos, dynamic weight and directional changes, explosive classic Jazz technique, and Cheerleading motion placement and jumps. Pom experience is not required for this workshop, but enthusiastic energy is definitely a must! *Paige St. John is a professional dance educator, choreographer, and performer originally from the Cleveland area. She graduated with her Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Dance from The Ohio State University (2019), and is currently pursuing her Master's in Dance Education through the University of Northern Colorado ('23). Her work as an educator has taken her across the globe, leading her to have either choreographed, taught, judged, or presented dance education and coaching seminars on five out of the seven continents. Some of her most notable and inspiring experiences include performing at the Rebild Bakker 4th of July Festival in Denmark, teaching private coaching sessions with various teams in Slovenia, judging the Ukrainian Dance Championship Cup in Kharkiv, and spending four incredible months teaching, choreographing, writing curriculum, and training other dance educators in Guangzhou, China. In the States, Paige choreographs for a variety of studios and teams in the Cleveland area, as well as multiple nationally-ranked high school and collegiate dance teams, including The University of Delaware and Temple University. She frequently travels as a Master Instructor, specializing in technique and choreography in the styles of Contemporary, Jazz, and Pom. Paige had the incredible pleasure of being a part of the CDP Company and CDP Showcases in both Seasons 8 and 9 and she is excited to be bringing Pom to the Cleveland Dance Project Sunday series! Her love for this genre skyrocketed during her time spent on The Ohio State University Dance Team (2015 - 2017) and continued time traveling with, choreographing for, and teaching under the Universal Dance Association since 2016. Time to show your CDP spirit!* Anna Cerveny Director Cleveland Dance Project clevelanddanceproject@gmail.com web <http://www.clevelanddanceproject.com> / facebook <http://www.facebook.com/clevelanddanceproject>/ instagram <https://www.instagram.com/clevelanddanceproject/?hl=en> / Pro Company <http://clevelanddanceproject.com/company> / Showcase <http://tinyurl.com/cdps9>
