WORKSHOP: Yasmin Iriel Frione - 360° Movement 18.-20.07.2024

In the organizer's words:

360° Movement

18.-20.07.2024

Acrobatic floor work. In this workshop we will develop tools to think the body in 360°. Essential contemporary dance fundamentals will be covered as well as other movement techniques to have a solid and broad base for body mapping territory. Several acrobatic techniques are used to approach different sequences, explore our experiences and integrate multiple directions on different levels based on the fusion of movement and the acrobatic universe. The practice has its own physical and technical focus, while also engaging in the creativity of improvisation. Weights, tones, extensions, qualities, levels and rhythms will be the basis of our research. We will focus our work on individual and group processes. Both areas will help us to create a suitable space for exploring and sharing ideas. We will perform, release blockages and strengthen the essence of dance in each individual.
