Kultivating Kreativity with Kim Maria

For the bellydancer who wants to break free from always performing someone else’s choreography and is ready to explore and nurture their own ‘voice’…but isn’t sure how or where to start.

A 10-week online program, starting 26 November, providing you with the tools and coaching to develop creativity as a HABIT so that you can finally become ‘the dancer you see in your head’. Lifetime access to materials and practice club!

Available for purchase from 26 November to 31 December.

First 10 customers will get a FREE 45 minute coaching session with me covering any topics related to creativity or habit-building.

Create your own stunning choreographies or improvise beautifully without having to quit your day job and put in hours at the studio every week!

I see you… 

You’ve done countless workshops, but only feel confident to dance someone else’s creation, not your own!

 You’ve bought memberships to dance programs…but all you’ve managed to do is learn / refine technique. That’s if you’ve even bothered to log on!

 Maybe you’ve even done a ‘how to choreograph’ or ‘how to improviseworkshop, and you’ve learnt a TON of stuff! But still struggle to put it into practice.

All these things will help you build a solid foundation for your dance….but let’s face it, these things won’t necessarily help you to create for yourself, to find your unique voice and express it.

 That’s because their focus is on improving technique and memorisation, not nurturing creativity. Even when they tell you how to improvise / choreograph, they don’t show you how to integrate the concepts into your practice consistently so that they become second nature.

 This program does just that – I will give you the tools and tips to cultivate creativity as a HABIT. Tools and tips that will last you a lifetime, including helping you make the most of your workshops and memberships

If you want to become the dancer you imagine, creatively expressing your vision, you’re going to need more than just theory and extra hours in the studio!

Instead what you’re going to need are:

·      FOCUSED PRACTICE – exercises and techniques specifically aimed at drawing out and developing your creativity, not just improving your technique

·      TEMPLATES – useful patterns that you can work with which give you a base from which to explore different movement vocabulary and sequences to showcase YOU

·      MINDSET SHIFT – a return to your ‘inner child’ who loved to play and experiment, to see ‘what would happen if…?’ without self-critique, judgment or constraint.

·      A GUIDE to ‘hold your hand’ and encourage you as you build the habits that will serve you for the rest of your dance life!

This is for you...

...If you’re done comparing yourself to other dancers and wondering if they either have more time or more luck when it comes to being inspired than you.

 ...If you’re done trying to go it alone on this journey, trying to figure out the magic recipe to be able to create your own pieces or to improvise like a pro.

 I’m going to help you develop a system of consistent practice with creativity as its focus rather than afterthought, so that when you're ready to improvise / choreograph you can simply summon it! Instead of wishing and hoping and praying it will appear.

And here’s the best part…you won’t need to quit your day job and devote hours on end to achieve your dreams.

True…you’ll have to put in the work. Ask any artist and they’ll tell you that creativity comes as they consistently practise their craft.

But…you won’t have to commit an hour a day to achieve your dream.

 With focused practice, you can do this in as little as 15 minutes a day. Working smarter, not harder!

Don't blame me though if you start enjoying the exercises and exploration so much that you just carry on practising!

This programme will help you...

·      Structure your practice sessions, so you WANT to practise! You’ll develop a consistent practice habit because it’s FUN!

·      Unlock your creativity, your signature style, through targeted exploration exercises

·      Use templates as a launchpad for your self-expression. The hardest part is often getting started, so imagine that part being done for you.

·      Create your own templates – you know the ‘give a man a fish vs teach a man to fish’ story!

 Starting 26 November

In case we haven't met before...I'm Kim Maria

I believe that creativity isn’t a magic elixir, reserved for a select few, but rather something we ALL can access, including YOU!

 I KNOW that creativity can be developed and nurtured as a habit, and not a mind-numbing ‘let’s just work at it until the magic happens’ one, but one built on play, experimenting and FUN, like when we were kids! I know because that was my experience and also that of my students, who I’ve used some of these techniques with in my regular class.

I believe that with the tools and tips I’ll give you, you’ll be able to unlock your own creativity, in as little as 15 minutes a day. Not years of striving…

 And I’m passionate about seeing you succeed, which is why I’ll be doing the program alongside you, ‘virtually’ holding your hand and cheering you on!

 So let’s do it together!

Imagine yourself 3 months from now...

·      Being EXCITED to practise (I mean, play!) regularly

·      Not dreading the thought of improvising or having to create choreographies, because of all the new tools you have!

·      Being CONFIDENT to nurture and express your own ‘voice’ in dance

It’s not just a fantasy, it’s a reality waiting to happen!

You’re ready to explore and showcase what makes you unique!

 Let’s make it happen.
