Monday class focuses on floor work influenced by Pilates and yoga principles. Incorporating gentle stretching within a dance context, alignment is a key element. The outcome is a gentle and effective workout which tones and shapes with the added benefit of relaxation as well as tapping into the creativity.
The second part of the class consists of developing a sense for fluid movement, musicality and rhythm and technical aspects of movement that aims to be free and natural. The technique is revealed in a comprehensive and simple way.
Wednesday class focuses on movement designed to stretch the spine and muscles while working on the alignment, improving the balance through an effective use of the core muscles, facilitating efficiency of the movement.
The class progresses through dance routines with a range of technical challenges.
This unique approach to teaching provides the participant with a very enjoyable and comprehensive dance experience.
Classes are ideal for people with experience in various forms of dance and movement techniques aiming to offer the participant a unique and fresh approach, challenging them to reach their full potential.
