Acrobatic Dance
The course of Acrobatic dance is a different kinetic approach to the basic acrobatic tricks, adding flow to the combination of movements.
During the lessons we will research the kinetic vocabulary of contemporary dance and we will work on both the physical capabilities (technique, dynamics, flow, balance and acrobatics) as well as the expansion of our dance memory. The main purpose is to get acquainted with the different kinetic approaches acrobatics and dance, learning the techniques one by one.
The aim of the course is to find the mechanics of each movement and its possible alternations, to play with the limits of a three-dimensional movement in space and to develop a choreographically complex result from simpler acrobatic and kinetic materials. The courses will include the preparation of the whole body and the guidance of the acrobatic foundations. The course is referring to people of all levels.
