Actress and dance enthusiast Angela Trimbur is bringing her unique “balletcore” dance concept to Los Angeles, inviting participants of all skill levels to experience the joy of ballet-inspired movement without the pressure of technical perfection.
In a recent Instagram post, Trimbur announced her new dance initiative with the caption: “No skill required it’s a chance to dress like a ballerina and move your body telling stories to classical music LFG L.A.”
What Is Balletcore?
Trimbur’s approach to ballet is refreshingly accessible. Unlike traditional ballet classes that focus on technique and form, her “balletcore” concept celebrates the aesthetic and emotional aspects of ballet. Participants are encouraged to embody the spirit of ballet through costuming and expressive movement, regardless of prior dance experience.
This initiative appears to be an extension of Trimbur’s previous success with her dance academy. Earlier this year, she hosted a “Balletcore™ Recital” titled “Quest To Dream,” which attracted over 1,300 attendees.
The Philosophy Behind The Movement
The core philosophy behind Trimbur’s dance approach seems to center on healing one’s relationship with dance and movement. In a previous promotional post for her recital, she described the experience as featuring “90 vulnerably bold people healing their inner child relationship with dance by performing on a big bright stage.”
This therapeutic and inclusive approach to dance aligns with growing trends that emphasize accessibility in traditionally technical art forms. By removing the barrier of required skill or experience, Trimbur creates a space where adults can recapture the joy of movement that may have been lost to self-consciousness or perceived limitations.
From Screen To Dance Floor
While many may know Angela Trimbur from her acting career, which includes roles in films like “The Final Girls” and “Trash Fire,” she has increasingly made a name for herself in the dance community. According to her Wikipedia page, beyond her work as an actress, writer, and comedian, she founded the LA City Municipal Dance Squad, an all-female dance team that performed at local basketball games.
How To Join
The post directs interested participants to “Go2website2buy,” suggesting tickets or registrations are available online. While specific details about class schedules, locations, and pricing aren’t included in the post, Trimbur’s previous dance initiatives have taken place in Los Angeles venues and typically sell out quickly, as indicated by her past promotional posts.
For those interested in experiencing “balletcore” firsthand, following Trimbur’s Instagram account or visiting her dance academy’s website would provide the most up-to-date information on how to participate.
With this latest announcement, Trimbur continues to carve out a unique space in the dance world that celebrates the joy of movement and self-expression, inviting everyone to experience the storytelling power of ballet regardless of their technical abilities.
