Full Out with Feeling with Julie Crothers
Sunday, June 11th 2-3:30pm
@ Berkeley Ballet Theater
FREE
as part of Queering Dance Festival

Class will consist of a juicy follow-along warm up, a couple dramatic passes across the floor to country music triplets, and some funky fresh phrase work from Jules’ upcoming show “Holy Crap”. Class is appropriate for all levels and tools will be offered to empower participants to make choices throughout class that align with what is best for them and what they want! Full Out with Feeling is an opportunity to connect with yourself, your body, your joy, and each other, and get a little sweaty in the process.

As a maker, Julie utilizes contemporary dance, character, and comedy to tell stories, encourage self-reflection, and foster connection.

Julie is passionate about increasing the accessibility of dance for all and is currently on staff at Shawl-Anderson Dance Center and a teaching artist for Oakland Ballet's You Can Dance! residency program. In 2020, Julie was named one of Dance Magazine's "25 to watch". A Tennessee native, Julie studied Dance Performance and Choreography and Arts Administration at Elon University, graduating in 2014.
