			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.comdance.asn.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Cover-Page-JWS.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1658" title="Cover-Page-JWS" src="http://www.comdance.asn.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Cover-Page-JWS.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="282" /></a>CSTD exclusively presents the Jason Winters Contemporary technique a new world-class and comprehensive Contemporary Dance syllabus.</p>
<p>The exciting new syllabus is now available in Australia. The examination syllabus saw the first candidates in Australia early in 2012. The feedback has been AMAZING!</p>
<p>Those already teaching the syllabus have been overwhelming in their praise for the work.  Its technique and structure is designed in the most classical and academic way and infused with choreographic electricity used in today’s most commercial settings.  With CSTD&#8217;s vision of providing dynamic, exciting and fundamental technique to all students and teachers this Contemporary program does all that and more.</p>
<p><strong>WHAT OUR MEMBERS HAVE SAID:</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;We feel very privileged to have had the opportunity to be in the studio with such a wonderful choreographer, teacher and person&#8221;<br />
<em>Rachel, SA</em></p>
<p>What an awesome day!  JW is &#8216;da man&#8217;!!!  Can&#8217;t wait for next year when I can roll out the classes and see the students do it!<br />
<em>Angela, NSW<br />
</em><br />
I really enjoyed the workshop and the syllabus. It is great for the society to have new, fresh and exciting work.<br />
<em>Leah, VIC<br />
</em></p>
<p>I thought the Contemporary Syllabus was great and it will be a great Syllabus for students to do to gain a better knowledge in the style and a greater understanding about the core and strength. Jason was extremely inspiring to watch and learn from.<br />
<em>Colleen, VIC<br />
</em></p>
<p>Jason is fascinating, and I’m sure he has some wonderful stories and experience to share.  I love his passion, which feeds thru very clearly.<br />
<em>Tamara, VIC<br />
</em></p>
<p>We loved it!  I think it is a huge step forward for the society and I am so pumped that they are going in this direction.<br />
<em>Suzie, VIC<br />
</em></p>
<p>It was a honour to work and share the same space as Jason. He was very inspiring.<em><br />
Tara, VIC<br />
</em><br />
LOVED IT&#8230;thanks so much for bringing us all this fabulous new work. You are terrific!!<br />
<em>Miss Nikki, WA</em></p>
<p>Thanks so much – it was FANTASTIC !!!! Jason was very easy to work with and I feel a very positive influence.<br />
<em>Lynda, SA<br />
</em></p>
