ZELDA LOURENS

Fan Flow Arts

Zelda is owner of Evolve Fire and Entertainment. Her love for the flow arts shines even more brightly than the various intersting props she uses, through the energetic movements in her choreographies. This year she will be teaching something new at Dance Week...

Fan Flow Art

"I am very excited to be teaching a new form of flow art this year at dance week. The term “flow arts” constitutes a variety of movements or dance using objects or props. Come explore the art of Flow with me, expressing yourself through movement with a physical object, where the prop becomes an extension of your body in the dance. I will be teaching a fan dance with some Chinese LED fans."
