Pablo Girolami - Workshop

This workshop combines breath, movement and instinct. We move freely, listen to our bodies and follow our inner energy.

We start with a guided improvisation that awakens the body, deepens the breath and activates the heartbeat. Each person finds their own rhythm and discovers new movement possibilities and personal expression.

Inspired by animals, we explore strength and lightness: a deep plié like a cat or a monkey, a light relevé like a bird. Feet, knees and hips take center stage - they carry us, provide stability and allow movement to flow freely.

The breath is the basis of our work. It guides the movement from within and connects body and feeling. This creates an instinctive, natural way of dancing - honest, lively and personal.

The workshop is complemented by simple technical exercises (Tendu, Fondu) and "Square Exercises", which open up the upper body. We imagine the spine and arms as living lines that expand in space and carry energy outwards.
