"ALL INCLUSIVE - Technique of Dance" Advanced

As a teacher, student and performer there are number of subjects that i am simultaniously cultivating.
Body Work (strength, flexibility, coordination...), Technique (is a procedure used to accomplish a specific activity or task), Sense of Dancing ("i am dancing, not exercising", dancing with precise, chosen relationship to the music), Creativity and Freedom, Performance (is an event in which one group of people/performers behave in a particular way for another group of people/audience), Enjoyment (fun and enjoyment as a part of the work), Work Ethics (own discipline and approach to the art form dance).
These subjects should be cultivated, nourish each other and coexist at the same time.
I would like to inspire the dancers in building up their own dance method using their knowledge, observation and intuition. My teaching is coming out of my ongoing present research and joy to dance which I would like to pass on.



"ALL INCLUSIVE - Technique of Dance" Beginners
Using knowledge, observation and intuition

Our focus will be working on developing technical skills through dancing.
We will improve stability, strength, flexibility and coordination, building them up simultaneously and making them a basic body equipment, ready to be applied in any kind of movement.
Our working tool will be open dancing used in the simply structured group situation. We will use this method as a warm up, technical exercise and full dance experience using the music as a strong inspiration source.
I would like to inspire the dancers in building up their own dance technique using their knowledge, observation and intuition.
