Contemporary Acrobatic Dance
During the lessons we will research the kinetic vocabulary of modern dance and we will work on both physical abilities (technique, dynamics, flow, balance and acrobatics) as well as the expansion of our dance memory. We will explore the possibilities of sequencing small and larger dance / kinetic combinations, and their functionality in space. We will play with the alternations in the composition of these combinations (sequence, quality and speed).
The aim of the course is to find the mechanics of each movement and its possible alternations, to play the limits of a three-dimensional movement in space and to develop a choreographically complex result that will result from simpler kinetic materials.
The course is aimed at people of all levels in contemporary dance.
