Workshop: Ear Training & Analysis (Live Sessions)
with Michael Ibrahim
Most dancers say they want better musicality.
Very few are willing to train their ears.
This 3-part live workshop is for the dancers who are.
After the success of Michael Ibrahim’s Ear Training and Taqsim sessions at GoLive!, he returns with a deeper, dancer-focused series designed to sharpen how you actually hear music—and translate that awareness into movement.
This course bridges music and movement, expanding on the foundation set at GoLive! 2025 and crafted specifically for dancers who want more than surface-level interpretation.

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to:

• Recognize song structure and emotional flow
• Hear transitions and shifts before they happen
• Translate musical nuance into movement with clarity and intention
Each class strengthens your musical intuition so you’re no longer guessing, copying, or reacting late—you’re responding with confidence and artistry.

What Students Are Saying
“Since I started taking Michael’s classes, I listen to songs I’ve heard since childhood and hear things I never noticed before.”
— Lorena
“When I first took Michael’s classes, I didn’t understand what he was talking about. I assumed I’d always be lost because I’m not a musician. But if you stick with it, everything starts coming together. There’s no shortcut.”
— Katie
“I loved hearing Michael’s perspective on why listening this way matters—and how it helps dancers truly connect to the music.”
— Sandra
