International Teacher and
Performing Artist Lorienne Beals
Teaches at the Basingstoke
Academy of Dancing, England

Lorienne Beals, International Performing Artist,
Director of Services for New York Institute of Dance
and Education, and principal company member /
Rehearsal Director for the Kaleidoscope Dance
Theatre, continues her international performing and
teaching schedule with with a series of classes at
the Basingstoke Academy of Dancing, the Fairfields
Arts Centre, and a MT teacher training series
throughtout England.

In addition, Ms. Beals is a business analyst for
the International ITT Corporation, and has
accepted a special one-year engagement with
the UK office in Basingstoke. Ms. Beals is also an
executive committee member of the New York
Dance Festival, has hosted the International Stage
Dance Concert and Carmen De Lavallade Awards for
Dance, as well as the Thommie Walsh Song and Dance Man Gala.

While in Europe, Ms. Beals will be joining her colleagues, acclaimed Choreographer Gregory Livingston (NYIDE European Liaison from Frankfurt, Germany), and multi-award winning International Producer and Choreographer Sean McLeod (New York Institute of Dance and Education President & CEO), in American Master Class Tour stops in Europe. Ms. Beals will also offer her professional services in lecture, teaching dance, and master classes throughout London and Western Europe.

Her first series of classes held at the Basingstoke Academy of Dancing are classes in Reinforced Motor Function® (RMF) , a training module created by Sean McLeod. The system is a hands-on approach to movement understanding and application. It can be used to assist dancers in positions they are not yet strong enough to achieve on their own, or help advanced dancers reach heights that may have been thought of as unimaginable. RMF helps a dancer physically experience correct positions, and the proper execution for healthy movement in dance. RMF is originally developed from the principles of muscle manipulation and extremity control, not unlike ones found in the Martial Arts. RMF is an exciting application system that lets dancers understand immediately how their body should feel when performing a movement correctly, knowing exactly how it feels to take a position, and calibrating the sensation to match a correct position. The results are higher legs, more flexibility in the middle back, the construction of longer quadriceps, increased overall muscle definition, and greater confidence.
