Anya Senognoeva Offers a New Professional Contemporary Dance Class – April 7-11, 2025!

Passionate about organic movement, flow, and breath, Anya explores fluidity through research and improvisation. Through play and creative exploration, she seeks to strengthen the body and expand both physical and mental possibilities.

Her approach invites dancers to explore movement phrases and energy-generating material circulating through the body. By incorporating floor work techniques, balances, and acrobatic elements, she encourages a deeper and more diverse movement quality—whether light, strong, soft, or instinctive. Her goal is to provide practical tools that every dancer can integrate into their practice and daily life.
