Close Knit Grooves

This past Sunday Signe Åman, Moa Nilsson and Tilda Stejdahl from Fryshuset danscenter came out to Näsbypark for a dance photoshoot in my Green Room. This photoshoot was an amalgamation of different styles, we were mixing street dancing with Audrey Hepburn-ish style, and even threw in some metal and gold flakes at the end.

Moa Nilsson, 21 years old. Born in Dalsland, but living in Stockholm. I am currently studying at danscenter fryshusets yrkesutbildning to become a professional dancer. I have fallen in love with the hiphop-culture and its rawness. I chose the oversized-outfit because I feel the most like myself in that, and it helps me add some interesting heaviness to the picture and my dance. Baggy clothes is also something I haven’t seen as much of in dance-pictures, which I think deserves some more space

I am Signe Åman, 21 years old originally from Skellefteå, Västerbotten, but now located in Stockholm where I study to become a professional dancer at Danccenter, Fryshuset. I’m a jazz and modern dancer at heart but I’ve become more and more into commercial/street styles during my education.

In some of the pictures you can see a white “bolero” style shirt that I crocheted this spring. There is also a couple pictures of me in a pair of super wide jeans which was two pairs of my fathers old jeans that I’ve recycled and combined.

I’m a jazz dancer at heart but feel that I have grown into modern and hip hop in recent years. I am now studying at danscenter, fryshusets yrkesutbildning to become a professional dancer.
