Partnering in Performance

Shifts between emotional states and dynamics

Movement is the key tool of the workshop.
The Workshop is addressed to dance amateurs with athletic training background interested in dance as artistic form of expression.

Partner and floor work with high doses of energy and dynamic changes will centre the attention in the class. We will explore movement originated from necessity, urgency, limitation, emotional reason, etc. With partnering I refer to people wishing to communicate, searching for sharing intentions and trying to establish new codes for dialogue in movement. By duo and group exercises we will deal with terms such as trust, weight, sharing timings, leaders and followers.

Physical dialogues propose different exercises to enhance instinct, opening and awareness.
Music, the imaginary, humour… will encompass the dance sessions.
