A photo album of the first week 🖼️

Class pictures, hilarious videos, and an invite to dance. 🩰

Hey there,

I love flipping through pictures. And I thought you might too. So find below our first week of classes in photos & videos. ⬇️

And below that, an invite to a dance project by our friends at Beatzone.

✨


🖼️ The first week of classes in pictures & videos

We started. And we are loving the new groups. 😍 I mean… Look at them!

A selfie with a group of happy looking people, one with thumbs up.
The Monday beginners in our cozy new space de Handpan Studio.

This course was sold out, but now has 1 spot again.


A colorful wheel with different genres, like rom-com and murder mystery.
As Seen On TV explored (and will explore)
all the genres in popular fiction.

This course has 2 spots left.


After the patterns class (which I am thoroughly enjoying being part of), Gael sent this clip, with this nerdy explanation:

It's a freeform show and therefore relies heavily on patterns recognition and stories, telling them in a non-traditional sense of the term.
This scene is one of my favorite examples of how it evolved from a scene—to an edit—to a pattern—to a game—to a scene!

You can still jump in to this course, by the way.


A selfie of 5 happy people with beverages in their hand in the Flock Studio.
After Painfully Funny, we had a fun hangout
with some students in the Flock Bar.

This course is sold out.
The Dutch version in Hilversum has 3 spots though!


The Beyond Beginners exchanging animals with each other. Can you guess which one(s)? Hint: there is 1 raccoon in a chokehold.

This course has 1 spot left.


A full-on telenovela class with both Tanine and Laura. The course The Improvised Soap Opera started as delightful and fun as this clip.

Did you know the class is now at 20:30?
In case you want to join this hilarious course.


What a week!

Like in any photo album, not everything made it in there (we see you Monday advanced classes, Hilversum and production class). When in a few weeks, also the new Wednesday Beginners have started, we will do another collection!

If you are currently in our courses, and you have a picture from class, we also love seeing it (in our inbox or with an Instagram tag).


🩰 Invite to a dance project

Not from us, but from our lovely partner Beatzone

Rood vierkant met witte tekst van Heel Amsterdam Danst.

Let Amsterdam Dance is a dance project looking for Amsterdammers of all ages.

In each district, approx. 20 residents, with or without dance experience, learn part of Sasha Waltz’s ballet In C and create their own unique performance for Let Amsterdam Dance. On 15 June, all groups perform together at Nationale Opera & Ballet and also present “satellite” shows in their districts, featuring local talent and dancers from the Junior Company.

Rehearsals will take place weekly or biweekly at Studio Beatzone at TT Vasumweg 34b (on NDSM area) on Thursdays from 18:00. The lessons are free and led by choreographer Zoë Greten.

Would you like to join? Email to contact@beatzone.nl. It starts end of January.
