Bill Evans Laban-Based Modern Dance Technique offers dancers tools for self-discovery and positive change. Each class integrates patterns from Bartenieff Fundamentals and allows participants to bring their personal uniqueness to movement investigations through the Body, Effort, Shape and Space lenses of Laban Movement Analysis.

His work lives and breathes at the literally hundreds of schools, studios, universities, colleges, high schools and companies where Evans has taught, performed and choreographed." --Susie Eley, Dance Teacher Magazine
