About
Contemporary dance
The class aims to enhance somatic awareness and body connectivity. By engaging and disengaging places in the body, we become attentive towards the body coordination, which provides us as a ground to explore movement complexity and play with its particular qualities. The class starts with body work (alone or with a partner) that expends into movement study and play. It continues by applying found principles or sensations onto movement sequences, which are later challenged and modified rhythmically and spatially. The movement sequences offer a frame work within choice making can be practiced in relation to timing, intensity, volume, etc. and various articulations of a single material can be discovered.
Ballet for contemporary dancers
The class gives an opportunity to investigate the connection between the formal aesthetic and the anatomical structure of the body. We will deepen the understanding of functional movement principles while implementing ballet vocabulary. The class emphasises traveling through space and finding our body alignment in relation to gravity as well as exploring different dynamic principles through conscious use of music.
