Body conditioning Conditioning class consists of various exercices wich main target is to develop core stability, coordination, power and mobility of the body. It is designed as a phisical preparation for the further training in contemporary dance.
Contemporary dance Starting on the floor with the release based exercises; the contemporary dance class evolves and ends up in explosive dance phrases using all height levels. The technical emphasis lies in the game of using full relaxation changing to tension in order to work most effectively within the own body possibilities. Awareness of the focus, body co-ordination and sensibility in articulation are other vital elements which will come to pass. It is strongly advised to wear comfortable cloths with long sleeves and kneepads.
Partnering This course is introducing a method that allows performing various duet and trio work with a level of risk while still managing to re-gain control. In the sets of exercises and phrases the concepts of focus in partnering, manipulation of the body, saving from falling and spiral lifts are introduced.
The workshop is based on the research and repertoire of the international dance company Club Guy & Roni. (Netherlands/Israel).
