Master Class - Contemporary Dance Technique
The class begins on the floor with a progression of isolated movements. These are meant, on a first level, to warm up and mobilize the body, and on a second level, to build specific movement patterns which will be applied to a small sequence, where the focus becomes the process of transition, and the attention to what lies in between. Following the logic of gradually reducing the support with the floor, some preparatory exercises will be developed in the vertical, in order to make the transition to the next stage of the class, which consists of choreography with the very specific objective of allowing everyone to just simply dance.
