CONTENT // In this class, we will use an approach combining dance, improvisation and yoga. Through simple exercises on the ground we will activate the body and the senses by relating them to space, time and other dancers. We will awaken the body to lead it to an effective and sensitive coordination.
This course will allow dancers to improve their skills by using their curiosity and creativity in the dance movement.
With guided improvisations or choreographed sequences, dancers will be encouraged to work in different isolations from the body to explore their own way of moving. By trusting their intuition, participants will explore different states: physical, mental and emotional to find the balance between control and letting go.
