After last year’s success, we are expanding our exclusive morning classes onto the full three weeks of Dance Without Limits SUMMER!
Each week you will have the opportunity to delve deeper into a specific technique brought to you by one of our weekly teachers.
The extra classes, held every morning from 9 to 10:30 on the small stage, are intended for a small group of advanced dancers, who would like to explore a specific mode of movement or technique in more depth. Each series of classes will also be topped off with the making of a professional dance video.
The price for Extra Morning Classes for one week is €140.
Shared Levitation Partnering is based on the principles of action – reaction. The aim is to liberate dancers from the aesthetics of dance and enhance their natural playfulness and functionality instead - an easy way to rediscover one’s excitement about dance and invite our inner child out to play.
Through exercises in different constellations, dancers learn to listen, follow and direct their movement as one functioning organism through space. Emphasis is placed on an organic way of partnering, inspired by contact improvisation, acro-dance and martial arts. Each pair is led to discover unique ways of communicating and looking for their own individual solutions and variations on the given material. Another important aspect of the class is the constant change of the level of activity for both roles. Dancers learn how much resistance, power and direction is needed to reach their maximum together. At the end of each class, dancers will also learn fixed partnering material and extracts of Marion and Alan’s duet Porzellan-Haus.
The Floorwork Flow class will be led by incredible dancers Samuel Caleb Baxter and Vanessa Vince Pang from the UK. Samuel and Vanessa have a combined extensive experience with modern dance, ballet, acrobatics, gymnastics, capoiera, tricking and breaking. Their movement vocabulary draws heavily from this range of disciplines and combines them to create a rounded approach to floorwork, to which these special classes are dedicated. Under the guidance of Samuel and Vanessa, dancers will delve into the world of floorwork through working with improvisation, coordination, rhythm, strength and conditioning. The aim of the class is to gain a deeper understanding of how we respond to different types of movement, whether we are on the ground, upside down or in the air. We aim to finish the classes not just with a better understanding of the floor, but also a wider comprehension of our full kinesphere.
