What if there was a way to…



… more easily retain and access what you learn in your dance classes?
… assimilate what you have learned in dance classes from multiple instructors?
… identify and correct habitual and limiting movement patterns?
… accelerate the development of your OWN style?
… develop confidence and character on stage?
… tap into affiliated talents to enhance your own?
… recharge your excitement and rekindle your love for dance?

And what if the way to do all of that was exhilarating and fun?

THERE IS A WAY!

Project Band - Karen Barbee/Karavan Studio’s creation that uses live music as a tool for all of the above and more!

The Project Band Curriculum is a year long commitment that runs from October through September.


BUT now there is an opportunity to access the tools for a shorter time period!
  • Reap Project Band benefits NOW.  
  • Test drive the Project Band program to see if it’s for you, and/or 
  • Get a head start on the process for more comprehensive involvement when full participation opens up again in October.

 

What is Project Band?

 

Project Band is a year-long performance improvisation program that is designed to give dancers of all levels tools, concepts, and skills to deepen their experience with live music and their understanding of h
ow it can be used as a tool for development.

For dancers at any level, the excitement of knowing that you will be able to work with live music on a recurring basis for a solid year – and take the time to reflect and learn from the experiences as they happen – serves as a reason to FOCUS. The result is accelerated growth and a deeper assimilation of your dance training. 

Additionally, any sustained learning experience presents its plateaus. Generally, those who find the tools, the reasons, the patience, and the motivation to move through them excel; and those who don’t remain stalemated - and eventually quit.

The recurring, themed nature of the classes, exercises, workshops, and performance opportunities in Project Band will provide a tangible, everlasting shift in the way you match movement to music. You WILL grow. You WILL move forward from the experience.

I'M KAREN BARBEE.

I'm Karen Barbee and I have been a dancer for 55 years; a belly dancer for 50 of those years. And I'm still at it. More importantly, I'm more excited than ever!!!

I've had several growth spurts over the course of my dance journey such as when I became a teacher and when I became a gym rat; but BY FAR my biggest growth spurt came when I had the chance to work to live music on a frequent, recurring basis.  

As a studio owner for over 30 years, I wanted to find a way to simulate this growth opportunity for my students - not easy in these days of mp3s. But it's done. That's Project Band, a passion project of mine that has been evolving over the last 10 years.
