Discover Block 3: Commercial With Guest Artist Katelyn Holman Get ready to bring the energy in this fun and upbeat Commercial Dance workshop with Katelyn Holman! Commercial dance is the high-energy style you’ll often see in music videos, live concerts and stage performances, bringing together influences from jazz, street dance and popular dance styles. Working to an exciting track, you’ll learn a fresh piece of choreography exploring sharp, dynamic movement, rhythm, musicality and performance style. It’s all about confidence, personality and finding your own groove — learning the choreography, adding your individual style and, most importantly, having a brilliant time dancing!
