WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE CLASS?
Explore the essence of improvisation, partnering principles and group work to train group listening and choice making. Experiencing meaningfulness instead of forcing the creation of meaning.
This professional dance class dives into partnering principles, combining elements of instant composition and group improvisation to create dynamic performative spaces. Starting with improvisation tools, the class explores experimental movement language that blends theatricality, time-warped flow, and a touch of the absurd, encouraging dancers to reflect their behavior in unexpected ways. Whether focusing on the technical aspects of partnering or adopting a more explorative, research-based approach, dancers will be challenged to expand their creative boundaries, drawing inspiration from both form and freedom.
Throughout the class, dancers will develop skills in timing, connection, and responsiveness, essential for professional-level partnering. The improvisation work is designed to foster collaboration and spark new ideas, offering a balance of structured technique and creative exploration.
